Since a question was asked about mini bikes and mopeds here's one I am working on and customizing to make it my own. I traded for it with a friend so I have no cost in it, all original and running. So I registered it and took it for a ride, tops out at 26mph indicated stock with my 200lbs on it. First impression was remembering how fun these little bikes can be! rode up to the frozen custard place for an ice cream. Second impression, these bikes had no suspension really, about 2 inches of hard springy travel, i felt every crack and hole in the road. Third impression, I can make this thing go a little faster and have more torque out of the hole with some engine mods and a pipe and carb. Fourth thought was to delete the stock fuel tank since the oil injection has already been removed and build a new fuel tank with more capacity, and rack for the bike that is integral with the fuel tank, tail light and turn signals will mount to it also.
