Mar 6, 2012 - the bad thing is, in some states it has to be registerd, and even have a plate to be out on the road. and some places you need a licence. inless your just gonna cruise around the yard
Sep 26, 2011 - It is a kit. I have bought it and put it on my 1976 free spirit road bike. It "feels" fast but is not that fast. While it did come in a kit I had to go through slot of trouble fitting it and had to make a whole new back hub for it. It was a pain but worth it. It was a fun learning experiment and I really enjoyed it! Good video guys!
Aug 28, 2011 - they use to make a lot of them here in singapore but it got banned because motorized vehicles here cant be driven or modified without license.
Aug 1, 2011 - Indeed that bike is awesome (though I'd want something more silent), but I must note that whoever did the camerawork had some pretty great shots :D
Jul 28, 2011 - Their fun, though from my own experience the four stroke kits are boss. you can theoretically use different fuels instead of the standard boring gasoline.
Jul 27, 2011 - Yea. I like the enduro's too.Insurance is the only thing that keeps me from buying any motorcycle because it would be more than I could afford at the moment. I've used my motor bike to go to my college 15 miles away once before, but it takes a lot longer than using a regular motorcycle or car. It's fun to keep up with traffic while at the side of the road and you get a lot of attention on one because people don't expect to see a motor on a bicycle.
Jul 26, 2011 - Nice :) My lil bike only does 37 but its a 66cc. My last one had apes and a huge rake but I crash'd too many times.
Im glad you didn't mind the joke.
