Necessity is the mother of invention.

 

 

This baby gets about a 120 miles to the gallon and if I run out of gas I just pedal.  This is a "homemade" cruiser for getting around when the car ain't necessary.  Running to get lottery tickets,  some groceries, or just cruising the hood, beach, whatever.  Spring, summer, fall it is just plain fun.  It has an 80cc. 2 stroke engine, 72 spoke wheels, springer front end, custom paint, lights, etc..

 This engine can rev to near 4000 rpms. with lots o' torque, more than enough for a full grown adult.

You see necessity is the mother of invention.

Thank you for the KOOL comment! We may have a new name for this paint scheme! Because to us it ended up looking "Philadelphia Eagley Green", and around these parts the Eagles are the 'Skins biggest nemesis.

I had a Moped a few years ago. Your motorized bike looks much easier to navigate. The police didn't even agree with each other on what to call it! One office said all operators needed to be licensed and have the bike registered & insured, and the other said that, as long as I needed pedals to start it up, it wasn't considered a motorized vehicle.
