Motorised Bicycle - Part 2 The Fine Tuning

Well, got the beast going! A little learning curve involved, however once going it's not tooo bad... For the advertised 80cc, it's way below the power I anticipated... Not sure if that's just because the engine is so agriculturally made with little development behind it when compared to a motorcycle from Honda for example, or just because it's not yet run in....(documentation says about 500km), hmmmmm not sure if the whole thing will last that far :) Anyways, with the mindset that it is a "motor assisted" bicycle and not a motorcycle, I have found it to be great! With a little pedaling it screams along. Feels quiet unsafe at speed. Think the bicycle front end is pretty crap...may have to change the forks... Pics sure to follow soon :) Slippery Out!

Received the engine kit via Aus Post. Unpacked and fitted rear wheel sprocket to bike wheel. Began to fit engine to bike frame, hmmmm had to make up a front engine mount as the bike I am using has a large Alloy frame that the standard engine mount cannot fit. Worked out a mount, now can continue fitting.... Pics to follow...stay tuned..

New Project - Motorized Bicycle

Ok, so the lowcost project is officially dead! Way too much money required and not to mention time :) Now on to better things...like a 80cc petrol motor on my bike :)...for getting to work of course.... So far the motor has been ordered on Ebay, so more to come...stay tuned
