What makes you choose motorized bicycles?

sad part is you can buy a motorcycle cheaper

Not even close actually. I already have a bike, no need to buy, so only need a kit, which can be obtained for $300 or less. A decent quakity one can be had for $150. Where I live, you can forget finding any type of motorcycle for less than 1k. If you do, it'll probably be on Craigslist and won't have a title, or won't run. I live out months boonies, there aren't many people within 100 miles of me selling bikes, and the ones that are are usually asking 1000 at the lowest for just an old model dirt bike. Street bikes, even starter 300s, are 3 grand or more. And that's used. My credit stinks, so finiancing new isnt an option sadly.

Fun to ride, cheap to fix or upgrade, and easy to work on. So true!

Had a Monark twin 60+ years ago, till it blew a rod. ( rod bolt come loss ) Then i built my own with a 1.5 Briggs, love that bike. Then at 17 i found a Model A Ford, motor bikes were history till i found a friction drive kit, built back in the 60's put it on a bike. Now working on and building another.

Fun being a kid again,LOL............Curt

The value proposition and no insurance is what sucked me in
