My Nishiki Anasazi Motorized Bike - photo included
Hey everyone.. glad to be here and obviously this is my first post on this board.
Decided to go motorized since a few guys around here have motorized bikes or they have electric pedal assist.
It's winter here in New Jersey so I decided to embark on bicycle project ...
I decided to purchase The Flying Horse Dragon Fire Engine Kit for my Nishiki ... Decided not to go with the stock rear sprocket clamp assembly.. I simply purchased custom rims with the sprocket already on ...
I have a front disc break but no rear breaks as of yet ... The distance from the rear break mounting hole to the breaking area on the rim is 5 inches / 127mm ... (if I am measuring it correctly) Most break calibers go to 93mm max ... Never seen one for 127mm
The handle bars design has me leaning over the gas tank like 8 inches below my chest (not good) ... I really do not want the gas tank on the top crossbar where it is designed to mount. Purchased a rear behind the seat cargo rack that will hold the gas tank. (I just have to modify it plus modify the rack itself to prevent it from snaking/swaying off center ...
I double nutted the mounting brackets and also used loctight and lock-washers to further prevent vibration loosening ... Was considering a strip of Header exhaust tape to secure the muffler to the bikes frame.. again to make it more difficult to vibrate itself loose on the trails.
(while maintaining that 1 inch gap between the muffler and the frame itself)

Now I am just waiting on my Maxima 27901 Scooter Pro mixing oil to arrive so I can finely fire this thing up ...
Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated ...
