So i had a huffy cranbrook that i converted to a trike. it was a 3 speed jackshafted trike with the 66cc 2 smoker. it was great awesome. than i decided to make the cranny a 6 speed two wheel motorized bicycle. which isnt bad goes 23 flat consistently gps tested. But now ive finally decided to build the trike kit into a new rig. that will basically save me gas money but travel pretty quickly. im going to use a custom electric drive. with either a 2 or 4 stroke motor. i have a motor im going to use to test which came out of ryobi electric weedwacker. pictures will be coming within a few days. ive decided i like my 2 stroke, but i want a new challenge. .duh.

So your trike will be powered by gas and electricity?

yes im going to have an electric motor and either a four or a two stroke not sure which yet, im kind of leaning towards four stroke. still trying to figure it all out. I have just started to do the research and start slightly on the construction.

I had thought of adding a 24v hub e-motor to my motorbike for areas where I must ride the side walk or multi-use paths. Some of the roads on my way to work are just too dangerous for motorbike riding.
