Built this on a $200 budget. Ended up duct taping an old 60's yahama motorcycle gas tank onto the frame because the gastank that came with the kit had bad threads.

Edit: its slowly becoming more rat roddy as i slap on parts from other old bikes i have lying around

I'm assuming you're converting a fixed gear bike to a single speed bike then motorizing it. A true fixie has a fixed gear which causes the pedals to always move in the direction of the rear wheel. This means you could pedal the bicycle backwards and it would go backwards.

My legs couldn't keep up with the pedals if my MB were a 'fixie'.......
 
My bad, if it wasnt for yall i would've kept thinking that "Fixie Bike" was just the frame styling since i usualy see them looking a lot like what i've got.

You learn something new everyday.
