Since it doesnt look like im getting my liscense any time soon, i may have too. As long as the seat is 25" off the ground and its under 50CCs it would be a moped, but a whole lot cooler and cheaper. Any ideas what kind would be good?

Find yerself a cheap goped lol.

But it wouldnt have headlights, taillights, turnsignals, horn, front brakes, or anything else a moped has to have. Plus i would get pulled over all the time. Super pocket bikes look alot cooler too

most pocket bikes on that website have that

That engine will look pretty bad a$$ on a pocket bike. Dont you think it will be a little harder to manuver though?

in a sense yes it kinda would because of the added weight but the engine will be far back enough to not hit the forks

The weight was what i was talking about although the added weight should make it alot more stable at high speeds.

I would look for a Lincoln Electric or Century MIG on CL. You can get some great deals on there. Northern Tools also has a flux cored 125amp that my friend has and works good. What ever welder you choose, get one with more capacity than you think you'll need or you'll be kicking yourself later.
