hey guys!
my name is Bill and from Barrie Ontario. i just registered and would love to build a motorized bike. i have a Canadian tire superbike (like 80 bucks) and want to mount a motor to it.
my budget is less than 200 bucks. i found a kit on ebay and wondered are these worth buying?

Hey Marc from Montreal here.

I bought an engine from that seller about month and half ago no problems so far, just the instructions are hard to follow but with the help of this forum I was able to get it running and now I it ride to work every day. (12 KM each way)

I used a bike from Walmart here a pic of it during the build I liked because it already had heavy duty wheels and spokes . plus they have a very liberal return policy (12 weeks).

I added an gas filter and used a real fuel line but I had to put some clamps on it but now it does not leak any fuel at all.

I just used the buy it now option.

Good Luck!
