Panama jack bicycle. I just bought a 49 cc
motor to put on it

Wow thanks for the nice welcoming and fast response I appreciate it I've bought the bike last week and just ordered the motor today can't wait to put it together
Ryan, welcome to the forum. I am fairly new myself, and have gained a treasure trove of information and ideas from these good folk. I started my build with a Walmart cruiser similar to yours. I've cut mine all apart, and rewelded it with lots of changes. After all that, I have to say that I'm impressed with what I've seen, a good strong bike. We really enjoy checking out each others builds, so try to post some pix when you can. Many of the "masters" can give you some good pointers.
As soon as I start putting it together I will take a lot of pictures. Should I do anything with the fenders they look a little bit Flimsy.
I like the way the panama jack looks its kind of cool But I'm not convinced that's the best bike to use do you have any better suggestions for bike models?
My bike is the same frame as yours. I consider it my 'gateway drug' into the motorized bicycle scene....lol. So far, it's worked out great. With that being said, the only limiting factor in selection is your wallet.

Ryan, my bike was called a Nel Lasso version (who ever that is). I think all these use the same basic frame. I was drawn to the big cream tires and the welded rear rack. I'm going for the 1900's look, so keeping fenders. I believe if you get over 20, those will flap like dog ears "out the window". I will stiffen mine by placing small rod stock on the inside and pinching the flimsy little braces, encasing the rod. I've seen your pj done, if you put that in the search window, you can get an idea how yours will look. Luck to ya!
