Gonna start selling these in my actual store in Puerto Rico soon.(NOT ONLINE) I just ordered the bikes and the engines should arrive this week in our container from China. This things have exploded in popularity here. Anyone here have a bike with a 80cc engine in it? I think i might keep one and ride around lol.

walt, around here a lot of afro americans---dont know another PC word to use,,, have them. i know of at least 20, in this small town. theres no way they could be 80cc tho. they dont go fast enough. But good for people w/o a license to get around with, rather than walking.
hope it works out 4 ya

Yea, those are nice, whizzer used to be a good seller here in the states but they outpriced themselves right out of the business. They were asking to much for them and usually the older folks would buy them to get around. But now for half the price you can get a scooter. Alleyoop www.extreme-scooters.com/whizzerindex.htm

Yea this same bike i posted is retailing here for about $535.00 I got a question for you guys. I am looking for a Bicycle parts distributor in the USA. There are a few here in Puerto Rico but i wanna see if i can find some cool stuff that is not found here. Also racing parts for these bicycle engines. If you know anyone that sells to stores let me know.

I'm quite interested in these engines! Can they mount on just about any bike? How do you mount one to the existing chain? (meaning, are all bike chains the same, or..?)
There are bikes with 30" wheels out there that I've been contemplating. I know top speed depends on the size of the rear sprocket. Can you get aftermarket sprockets somewhere?
I really love this idea man!
Probably in Walmart get a $200 bike, plug a $150 engine in there, and have some reliable transportation!
From the I-net it seems some are able to get 26MPH out of them, while most do 32MPH. I'm sure with a minimum on pedalling one can easily get 40MPH out of them. Especially if 200LBS 50cc scooters with a CVT can go 50MPH, why not have these bikes go way faster?
Are all those engines 2 strokes?
Also, what I don't get is that my 4 stroke 50cc engine puts out 3,3HP (probably a bit overrated, but still 3HP), while these 2 stroke larger bores put out way less (2,7 HP).

You basically need to mix the fuel yourself. Most here are using Amsoil interceptor 2 stroke oil. Yes they do sell them all together. That is what I am going to be doing and that is what others here are currently doing. All you need is a well built bike like a cruiser and a engine kit and install it

I am sure you can make it fit with any bike as long as it can mount on the frame. All these engine kits are two stroke. Yes they sell a bunch if aftermarket parts for these engines from sprockets,valve heads, big bore kits, exhaust systems. That is why they are so popular right now. I have 200 engine kits arriving this week. Hoping US Customs does not confiscate them because they are illegal to import but most find a way around it. Another store was not so lucky and had all his confiscated by port authority
