Hello everybody,
I recently discovered the new law in illinois letting you ride a gas powered bicycle if powered by a 1 hp (25cc) engine and max 20 mph. It's not considered a motor vehicle so no plates licence or insurance!
The only thing is I have been searching the Wed and I can't find a 25cc engine kit unless it's a rear tire friction drive unit. I want to do a chain drive and a 4 cycle engine.
Are any available?
I discovered that Lehr makes a 4 stroke 25cc propane powered weed wacker and found the engine head for one (a Sears version) on Ebay for a good price so it's on the way. I plan to play with this engine (it's coming with a gas carb and no propane setup) and see what I can do. It will be cool to have a 4 stroke engine this small! I found some for model airplanes too but for big $$.
Any help is appreciated!
Roy
