Hi guys, yes I am the local motorhead. I am a fan of the small 2-stroke chineese engines but I would stay awoy from the e-bay sellers and go to a reputable dealer like Simpson Motor Bikes, Spookey Tooth, Thats Dacs and theres a few more, those are just off the top of my head. The problem with e-bay dealers is there is no warenty or support, once you get your kit your on your own. As far as the power, I am not small (nearly 300lbs) and can still cruise at around 30mph on the flat with the little 2hp engine. Somtimes they do need a little pedal assist going up hills but you can still top most hills at 15-20mph. Feel free to ask me any questions and check out the motokruisers website, there are more experienced people there than me...Kelly
Heres a pic of me and a couple of friends ridding this past summer, I'm the one on the left.
