Hi I'm in the process of motorizing a Pacific Coast Chopper bike (aka Schwinn with the fat rear tire, except red) with the "ebay chinese special 2 stroke". These chopper bikes are selling for $50-100 as the local kids outgrow them. Typical consumer society, aren't we? I love the look of those bikes.

I already built a 9" seat extension and 8" handlebar extension so I can reasonably pedal the thing (I'm 6'2") and now going thru the motions to add the motor. I have an oilfield fabrication business and lots of tools, welder, plasma cutter, drill press, small brake... dream shop...

It's -20 here in Canada right now so I have some time to get it going.

I am impressed by some of the builds and advice available on this site..!!
 
Welcome aboard.

I'm already jealous of your shop. sounds like you've got the tools to do some interesting things.

Have fun and keep us posted on your builds.
