Looking for a new home forum

[beginner01]

The motorized bicycle forums are dead! Sad it came to this. One has a history of bad over-moderation but is super active with lots of small talk and no substance (which I call the Dialogue forum), the other has fallen victim to small group of motorized bicycle hobby gatekeeper trolls from the Dialogue forum and an absentee ad-revenue concerned administrator who isn’t into bikes at all or even cares about the small community of builders he’s running into the ground.

Never got into this forum too much because there weren’t many motor builds although it was one of the first I found, but I think by now I have surpassed most custom builders on here in skill and experience. So, ask me questions if ya want.

Mods I have another account here named “Bladerunner” could you please merge these keeping beginner01 name?

My last ebike and gas bike-

Love the bobber. Has an early short tracker vibe going on.

I am working on a motorized bike now. Just posted a pic. It isn’t mine, but it is intriguing. I may buy a kit. Stick around, I will have questions.

It is a hardtailed ‘69 Yamaha ct1 frame that I had to build to replace the schwinn frames I was using with the 212cc predators. I was getting too many frame cracks. This build I put around 10000 hard full throttle miles on, top speed about 64mph.. here are my old schwinns with the quad chain 2-speed transmissions. I ended up using one of those scrapped schwinn frames for my first ebike.
