I haven't seen one of the rear suspension bikes with an engine. I tried to go to their on-line store for pricing but the page wouldn't load.
Anyone try one of these?http://www.bikebuyers.com/fito-modena-gt-alloy-7sp-man-photos-matte-grey.htm
FITO Modena GT Alloy 7 speed:
I think it fits most of what I want in a cruiser.
Aluminum cruiser frame
135mm rear axle
1 1/8" front fork
Disc brakes Front and Back
Vertical dropouts
3" Tires
Looks like it may have enough room for my 79cc Predator.

That is a great looking bike and would make an awesome MB. Be sure to beef up the fender supports.
I didn't see a price? But really cool bike.

Not with an engine, with just that wimpy back end engine power would just twist it apart.
Thats a nice bike and a good price. I like that rear fender too...Anyone try one of these?http://www.bikebuyers.com/fito-modena-gt-alloy-7sp-man-photos-matte-grey.htm

I just did the fito modena gt 1 speed with the hs 142 ghost racer 7g kit, and manic mechanics's billet hub adapter.
That is a sharp bike for jackshafting, it was on sale for $340 delivered so I bought a silver one.
Depending on how they did the back of the top bar it might even be able to be made into a small gas tank but I doubt I'll mess with it.
The promo said it had a spring shock, they must be talking about the seat because those look like hard triple tree's to me.

the triple tree fork setup has no suspension. I did my build on the one speed gt. the seat is the only suspension, unless you count the balloon effect from those big tires?
Ya, and Kenda tires are pretty good, they are named after my wife hehehe.the triple tree fork setup has no suspension. I did my build on the one speed gt. the seat is the only suspension, unless you count the balloon effect from those big tires?
Now that the holidays are over it's back to the Fito.
It's coming along.
Details of how I mounted the tank here.

I see a way to just weld a filler on the top and bung on the bottom for top bar tank, but no time to mess with it on this build.

Looking good, KC. isn't that frame a little thin for drilling into, without weakening it? I already have a few hundred miles on my Fito GT 1 speed. but I put the 7G 4 stroke on it.
and took a piece of pipe all the way down the seat tube and welded a length of leaf spring to set my seat back about 7 1/2 inches and left room for a ball hitch and extra tank behind the seat. once I find my camera I will take a few shots n post em.

No I'm not worried about the frame, I am just bummed I didn't get a chance to cut a big hole in the top and weld a filler.
Details of that are nearer the front pages of that topic.
I just finished up the jackshaft and motor mount so taking a break to just sit and look at it a bit ;-}
Yea MAn Really Nice Work!!!!
Thanks for all the info as well Its very Helpful!
I was just thinking about how to install the Tank Im going for a 1Gallon Brushed Aluminum.
Here are some Pics of my most recent Build that was stolen 1 week after break-in period!! Hella Pissed. I had it chained to a street sign which now that I think about it was pretty stupid They just used a portable Grinder and Chopped it in half BYEBYE!! I live in S.F CA Bike theft is constant!!
