Default Just getting started

Hello,

I'm just getting started. Saw someone ride by on a black one speed cruiser with butterfly handlebars and an 80cc 2 stroker...it caught my attention.

I started thinking about getting a project started for myself.

Any strong feelings about 2 stroke vs electric out there?

Thanks.

Jim

Thanks Mitch,
Got caught up looking at the cool bikes on Spooky tooth. I'm liking the the 2 stroke option and will check out golden eagle. Thanks for the tip. Have a great Christmas, Jim

hill climber,
Not sure what "pm me" means, but I would like to get started. Have you made your bike street legal? Lights? DMV? Thanks, Jim

Welcome to the forum!

"PM" means "Post Message"........meaning you can send any member a private message.
