Hello everyone I've recently been looking into getting a motorized bike kit and hoping I can get some help from the experts. I've decided I want a 4 stroke and will use the bike to commute to work which is about a 10 minute drive on slow roads. I would like a bike that can go at least 30 MPH if possible and a maximum price of $400 if possible, may be able to go slightly higher but would rather not. A few questions I am hoping to get some work on.
1) How many cc's do I need to go at least 30 MPH? As you can tell I know nothing about engines.
2) So far I'm looking at gasbike and bikeberry. Is one better than the other? What are some others to look at? I was looking at bicyclemotorworks.com because they have some great looking bikes but they appear to only be 2 stroke.
3) How difficult is it to install a speedometer if one is not included in the kit? Just out of curiosity.
4) About how long does it take a beginner building a kit?
5) Are any special tools required? I'm in South Korea at the moment so don't have many tools to build this but could order some here and there if needed.
Also any other tips to keep in mind while looking would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
