Belt drive from the motor, automatic, final drive is a chain. Sounds familiar. You're not copying my EZMotorbike kit, are you? I've rode mine about around the world....don't see how you could improve on it.
Don't mean no harm to nobody. But I been messing with motors and bicycles and go-karts, and drain diggers (you gotta' be a farmer to know what that is) and things for about 45 years. As for my motor bike...well...somebody just got it right! Only thing I've ever done to mine is oil the chain and put some gas in it about once a month.
and his intro; http://motorbicycling.com/f14/just-plain-ol-farm-boy-thats-19530.html#post186928I think if you were a bit more informed on "farm talk"..you'd know that just means I've ridden it for a very long ways. I guess I forget sometimes that city folk read this stuff. It's a great machine, I don't see how anyone could make it better, and if you guys are going to do nothing but attack me for telling you how great the EZM is...I mean...why you here? As I said...I built equipment for my farm for over 40 years. I know what I'm talking about. My little motorbike is good stuff. They got it right!
And yes....I'm quite aware of the fact that the Earth is about 8000 miles in diameter, and that using 3.1416 to multiply that would show that I would have to ride approximately 25,000 miles to ride "about around the world". Excuse me for my ignorance. I didn't expect a city guy to understand what "about around the world" meant. FYI...next time you hear a farm boy say that....he means he's been a long distance. Us farm boys might be considered ignorant....but Good LORD, man!...did you really think I really rode around the planet?
We can talk, friend. You don't have to be rude.
Personally I can do without the drama. I don't know who "Farmboy" is, but I have a good idea who it is not. I know Mike and am coming to know Quenton and I don't think either would do this. Whoever is doing it needs to stop. It is juvenile and offensive. I've admired the EZMotors setup for some time and think attacks just tarnish what appears to me to be a fine product. Personally I don't see the big deal about competition and giving us builders more options. I imagine Ford wishes GMC would go away and vice verse, but I don't want to see either gone. In fact I wish Studebaker and Hudson and Kaiser and Nash and a bunch of others were still giving us choices.Some folks will never learn that negative campaigns & public hostility may hurt the competition - but damages the reputation of the product they're trying to promote as well, resulting in both sides loosing potential sales.
As staff we need wade in and calm things down, it happens & it's something we get used to - but as a consumer... well... let's just say I've a list of products I won't be purchasing (& thus not recommending) - not because the product is inferior, but simply because I won't give my money to those that think it good business practice to overtly or covertly attack one another.
Drama may sell, but it only sells itself.
