Mounting a engine to a girls cruiser

[WEEDHOPPER420]

You can run a 10\48 for 20 mph top speed. A 10\44 will top out at 22 mph. Install the engine with the transmission. With an inexperienced rider don't go smaller than a 10t\44t.

Make sure she watches all 3 videos. Being a good MB'er starts with being a good cyclist first. Also let her know from a distance she looks like a pedal only bicycle approaching. People will pull out in front of you not realizing how fast you're going.

VERY true, I've had too many people pull in front of me doing 30/45MPH.
Get ready for every person to do the dumbest thing possible.

I have a loud horn that can be heard inside of a closed compartment vehicle. Often times I'll use it; this gets their attention and causes them to hesitate just enough to realize I'm going a lot faster than they thought I was.

My state Tennessee doesn't require me to have moped/motorcycle operating equipment on a motorized bicycle. However, I have it on my bike for my personal safety.

Jerry, what horn do you have?

This is it. The button is on the left handle bar. I also have a pedestrian horn whose button is on the right handle bar. The loud horn has an alarm and the rear brake light has an alarm. The horn and lights can be charged with a phone charger.
