Its not very expensive....$215.00 plus shipping. i am thinking of putting my 35cc honda friction drive on one. here is a picture .

Ace,

I like the Rebel...It reminds me of the last bike I did, a GT Deuce. The Deuce has been discontinued.

Thanks for the info!

Not a bad looking bike but a frame mount 2 stroke would look so much better on it. The friction drives are good but they lack 'the look' that a lot of us like. Price seems a bit steep, but, hey, it's only money.

i like the 2 stroke's also. i've had a few. i just got tired of working on them everytime i rode it.don't get me wrong..i love tinkering with them, but not when its a non-winning battle. they could do so much better. in time someone will do better. until then i will stick to my honda friction drives.i think the big cheif looks like a good riding bike.

you can pick up occ choppers for 50 bucks on craigs. they are not good for pedaling but work good with a motor plus you can make a fine trike.

Hello..this is my first posting. It's coming down to the wire for my first motor for my sons OCC bike. I wonder what people suggest, they all look the same, AND why do some have a pull start???
