Default Hello from Southern Maryland-St. Mary's

I really need some information as to what to do regarding what kind of bike to get and what motor to put on it. Eveyone I see in the threads tell people to got to site and make a choice. My question is do I go to walmart and if so what bike to get and where do I order an engine from and what kind. I want one for myself and plan to get one for my wife. Thank you for any information you can give me Robert Hall rhall@md.metrocats.net

Welcome Robert to the forum, glad you joined us

What kind of bike to get?.....http://motorbicycling.com/f3/what-ki...-510.html...In the link you will find measurements for the bicycle frame.

What kind of motor?....http://motorbicycling.com/f4/kit-best-1764.html...

2-stroke's are cheaper, a lot of maintenance and lighter.

4-stroke's are little more expensive, weigh more, less maintenance.

Welcome to the forum. I've seen lots of motorized bicycles that were purchased at Wal Mart. I bought mine at Target. Glad you joined us...................................
