Hey folks!
I've got the "bug". I want to build a motorized mountain bike. I already have a bike, but I'm not sure if it's up to the task. I purchased an 80cc 2-stroke, typical Chinese built kit. My bike is a GT Tempest from back in the day.
Due to the nature of the frame and size, I'm not sure if this will work, so I may have to get a different bike.
Might take some time though, because as far as I can tell (So FAR) it's illegal to ride one of these on the streets of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada - so I'm not so sure I spend a mint on a new bike to build up - rather I'll look for something used in a front-suspended mountain bike - with a bigger frame?
I guess time will tell!
Anyhow, I'm new, thought I'd say Hi, and see where this stuff leads me.
So the POLL is as to whether people think I can fit the 80cc into this bike, the enclosed pic will help you decide! hehe
