Last Tuesday was my first attempt at riding my bike to work. I got about a mile from home when the front motor mounts vibrated loose. The engine rotated backwards the bike basically self destructed. I've parked that bike and purchased a motored bike from a friend. It is a plain beach cruiser with a single speed and a 50cc. Friday I tried again on the new bike and made it just fine.
I estimate that I will be riding about 12 miles a day. I think I may purchase a 36t sprocket and a boost bottle to help me ride more safely in traffic.

I will be putting the bike back together this time with some form of rubber isolators for the engine.
Does anyone else have such major vibrations that the bike becomes unfriendly to ride?
