  • How fast were you traveling and were you pedaling also.

  • That model was a direct drive that does not use a centrifugal clutch. Very dependable. THe biker would pedal to about 5 mph, or if wanting really quick accelerations would pedal up to about 20 before the pedals cant be ratated fast enough to keep up with the ever increasing bicycle speed.

  • top speed 40 MPH?

  • Nice vid. Do you have standard bicycle brakes or something a little more heavy-duty?

  • good thing its still a bike, cause if you run out of fuel you can just pedal your way to the gas station. lol

  • No it is not illegal. It is classed as a motorized bike. Look up the laws on motor assisted bikes. It is not illegal.

  • My Swchinn beach cruiser is done. I put generator lights on it that ihooked up to the white wire off the engine. The back bulb kept blowing so I bought a red marker light from pepboys, that is actually 12 instead of 6 volt. It still lights up nicely, but is strong enough that it doesn't blow. Had no problems with the front. Start the engine and the lights are on all the time. I put them on so I can ride at night. you don't have to have any lights though, just like a bike.

  • He is 100% right. I live in NC too. I have a question if you can answer it. Do you have to have blinkers and break/head lights Thanks!

  • You can also go to Advanced Auto Parts. They Have Them

  • No he won't. Most states in the USA don't even need number plates, insurance, or even a license to drive real scooters and mopeds, let alone motorized bikes. He is well within the law. I live in NC. I have a 50cc scooter (dropped a 150 engine in it) and because it is classed as a 50cc I need nothing but to be 16 years old and wear a helmet. No license, no tags, no license, no inspection (MOT) etc. etc. I just ordered a 2 stroke engine to go into my beach cruiser.
