New with some Questions.

[Kustom Cruisers]

Hi all!

I'm new to the motored bike world but an old time bike guy.
Used to run a custom bike forum a few years back on MSN.
Kinda go out of bike for awhile but now am back.

I picked up a WCC chopper and wanna throw a motor in it and customize it to my taste.

So I have some Questions.
Where Can I find a Bike Motor in canada?
whats the best motor to buy?
Can I do this with basic tools?

thanks
D

Welcome to the forum! Yes, basic tools will do. As for the Canadian sellers, there are a couple, here's one that has free shipping to Canada- LATEST JET SILVER 80CC BICYCLE MOTOR ENGINE KIT BIKE ! - eBay (item 380126898802 end time Jun-24-09 14:21:05 PDT)

Can you post a picture of the WCC Chopper Bike. Some of those make for a pretty difficult build. It can definitily be done you will just run into some motor mount and exhaust issues. They are very similar to the OCC Schwinns which have the same problems.
Welcome to the forum, and there are modified parts you can buy for those bikes.

welcome to the forum,youre going to need a custom engine mount and a small rear sprocket.

Hey & Welcome!

Yep, the WCC's are especially tight in the frame for engine mounting.
It can be done however. I melded an OCC and a WCC chopper to create
the Orange Coast Chopper. Just gotta use your imagination. =-]'
