Are these cheap small engines any good long distance riding? How far do you ride yours?

The silver bike is a 66cc with a 41 tooth rear sprocket, I've been 38mph on it, too fast for my liking. It has a pipe that I made, a milled head with a corrected squish band and the piston skirt trimmed to clear the intake port.

My longest commute was 50 miles round trip on my China girl. I only did it a couple days per week. The manual clutch required too much adjustment during commutes so I installed an auto clutch. The stop n go traffic was much easier with the auto clutch.

I've never used mine to get to work, most of my riding has been on back roads or on weekends when traffic is less. If you ride your bike to work regularly keep a close watch on it, do a walk around check before you leave home. I like to go over mine the day before, its much easier when there's no pressure to get somewhere.
