Default Hello all!

Hi! I'm new to this, and i'm looking to take an older cruiser and convert it into a commuting machine. Any advice is especially appreciated.
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum. Lots of motorized bicycle enthusiasts here. My advice would be to find a bike you like and get a motor and start to work. If you get hung on anything we have some really sharp people here that would be more than happy to help you out. Don't be afraid to ask questions...............
