Make sure its under 50cc in most states otherwise you need a title. Some cops wont pull you over anyway but all it takes is one who is having a bad day to pull you over and impound the bike.
@thatyoutubeguy7583 I mean that's what I would do normally, but cops can impound it legally if you don't have proof it truly is under 50cc. I run an 80 cc and never had any problems, but if a cop is feeling like you have an attitude or something, he can seize it. And the risk if him suspecting forgery of proof can lead to a felony.
@@joshuakim1013i just stamp my engine with my own numbers… (40,45,49cc) and i also add a serial from the purchase receipt as a “bill of sale”/“title” or proof of ownership
@@joshuakim1013personally I feel like a felony of something so minute is crossing the line. I’d hate for something like that to happen. Cops have way too much power nowadays.
Got into a lot of trouble when i was in highschool so I legally couldn't get a license for years. Taught myself to build one of these and they got me through some hard times. Still got one i use sometimes.
You can get them upto 65mph. *that's* insane 😅 I'm trying to cobble one together now, in research mode. You reckon a fixie will go up a mountain if it's got an engine?
Your gonna want a mountain bike bud, the frame needs to be rugged and able to withstand all the torque coming from that engine. Trust me they look small but those little fuckers PULL HARD I’ve fucked up a few frames in my day on (MTBs btw)
Got my bullet train electric start completely rebuilt with a billit machined liquid cooled head forged pistons crank and Conrod were already pretty strong double spark plug ports 2 stroke EFI & a smart carb water pumps are electric too so no power lose as if it were a crank driven pump & alternator already uses crank power amazon exhaust with expansion chamber and a welder shop did all the measurements for chains and gears to gear the engine to the crank peddles cut the peddles and cranks off so its balanced & just a gear welded a stationed gear from the engine to the crank and was able to use a regular bike chain from there with a mountain bike 6 or 7 speed transmission ran on ethanol with 2 stroke oil never could dyno it but it blew up the CVT clutch after a burnout drove it but was scared to reach top speed but id say i hit probably almost 90 mph 6 gear and was 70% throttle at like 6,800 rpm running at like 190 degrees after a warmup id say maybe making like 15/20 hp had a cheap engine temperature tack and rpm reader you can get for like $15 or less on Amazon its pretty accurate just gotta wrap a wire around a spark plug and go into the settings and set it for 2 stroke engine
be careful. great if you do daily maintenance and ride cautiously. Watch your chain tension and keep good tires on em. Always be ready to pull the clutch in.
I got into them just for fun but now I using my gas bike to get around instead off a car saves a lot off money and I still enjoy riding these Chinese motors
Yes. I got into the hobby because of a dui, suspended license. But you can always just call your local police department and ask them. That's what I did.
Trust me when I say the police don’t give a shit about what CC it is lol long as you don’t overkill it by buying a dirt bike engine or those big ass predator motors even then if you can deaden the sound and not be flying down the same areas often they usually go the other way or shake their heads, wear a helmet and and don’t forget to smile ✌🏽
Even if it’s under 49 cc like it is supposed or claims to be as check your state rules and regulations because for example, Ohio you need a license regardless of the CC usage if you’re going to use it on any roadway so you need a license unless you’re using it solely in the dirt
I’m not quite sure why voice to text defaulted to see C usage but cc has to do with the amount of space there is between the piston and the very top of the engine or how much it moves or how much liquid goes in it or something like that one of thoseif not none😂
Lol because bicycles weren't built for motors and every bike is different making it virtually impossible to make proper fitting parts. Lots of fabrication involved.
That’s not true for most states, as stupid as it sounds. But in Arizona even if the motor is ANYWHERE under 50cc you still need a license, REGISTRATION AND INSURANCE FOR A FUCKING BICYCLE.
In some places you will get hammered, small towns won't care. Motor +50cc> its a motorcycle. I've been pulled over and checked. But I have moto endorsement. Just don't use the motor in the bike lane and should be ok.
Keep it under 49cc unless you dont have a bad driving record lol then fuck it get the 80cc it looks identical too the 49cc and im only talking about those 2 strokes. Predator engines are not allowed on street at all either there too danm big
Ima get a dirt bike (and im 12) but i know how to ride a bike i used one for years and it for 15 years old best speed they can go at is 120 mph (thats crazy for a 12💀 but dont matter) and always wear pants and you know what happens if you dont.. rip legs😔and it going be on black friday
