Motor Bicycle first time

[athif]

Hi, everyone

Im tihnking of building a Motor Bicycle, the one where you take a regular bicycle and put an engine on it.

I was thinking of doing a chopper, but i dont have a tube bender or the skills to start, so i was thinking of putting an engine on my bike, Anyone know how i would do this? I can put the egine in the middle like a motorcycle, or i can put it in the back like im carrying cargo, anyone got any tips on how i can start, because i cant find any "how to's" on the net

thanks for helping

maybe you could try a motor assisted bike, you can use the pedels and the motor. i thought about doing that with a chainsaw motor

i only have a 3.5 tecumesh engine, would that work?

3.5 thats heaps of power for a push bike, but its also very heavy. you would want to go with a 2 stroke like of a chain saw, hedge trimmer or some thing similar

or you could get a honda mini 4 stroke engine. its quite expensive though but it can be turned 360* and still work.

well, i was looking for speed on my bike, i dont really care about the weight, becuase i wont be taking it off road or carring it around with me

Try the 3.5, hard though.
