Hi, I’m a newbe here but am retired old guy. I live in Mountain View, CA.
I have owned 14 Harleys, sold all of them. I had a stroke three years ago now I still have some dumbness in my right side, arm and leg but I’m getting better. I peddle around on my 1985 DAHON 16” yellow Getaway 5 folding bike. For longer rides I ride around a lot on my LOREN STEALTH X1 scooter a with 49cc Honda engine. For me the 10” wheels are just too small so I just bought an Schwinn Point Beach Cruiser and plan to install a 49cc Kit Hua Sheng F142 with Grubee Whopper Stopper Stage 11.
I’m not a writer back; I’m a looker seeing what others are doing.
I want to build a good MB without any problems or need a lot of maintenance.
Thank You All
CaptJ
 
Welcome Captain,
You've come to the right place for advice on building a sound motorized bicycle. Few of us view them as totally dependable daily transportation nevertheless there are quite a few who use them that way. With your mechanical/motorcycle background I doubt you'll have a lot of trouble with the basics but there are any number of little hints and kinks that you can learn here to keep you out of trouble and on the road. Send us some pictures of your bike. We all like to see what the other guy is building.
