2) What type of physique does the primary rider have?
(Large, small, short, tall or health issues etc...)

3) What will the rider's local laws allow and require them to have? (Lookup and personally read these laws.)

4) What kind of bike is being motorized?
(Mountain, road, whizzer or recumbent etc...)

5) What is the bike to be used for?
(Shows, long trips, around town, off road or racing etc...)

6) How much of a budget is to be used for the build or buy?
(All at the start or as you can afford projects etc...)

Seek the answers to these questions in order to get the most out of the bike you're building or buying. We're here to help with any questions you may have. The purpose of the questions to consider is not to overwhelm or confuse you. Rather help you focus in on what will work best for you and help you develop a building or buying philosophy. This site has lots of people who can help you but the only way they can is by asking questions. Any one of the questions to consider somebody here can help you with.

A fool never learns from their mistakes.

Yeah, they are looking for anything that the can stick you with. So, you mean they got him because he had a shift kit? Uno, that is something that I need to start having more tools we me on board. Now, I just carry a few idems, but not enough do to trying to keep weight down. See, I'm alittle to big to ride these little bikes, but it's fun. I would say with bike and me, your pushing about 350lbs?!

LR, nice looking ride. I lived in Knoxville 13 yrs.....My best friend worked at K-25 in Oak Ridge for a few years. We always ate at "Big Edds."........... So, does your bike get around pretty well? Uno, I can see major advantages,................very much dependability.
