Making a motorcycle
| >>954943 for sure! I started a similar project with my dad a while ago. There's videos of others doing similar stuff, so definitely check those out. We welded our own frame and stuff so it was a bit more custom. Keep us updated OP!
| sounds like a cool idea, just be careful g/u/rl. dont hurt yourself
| Picked up the bike frame from a friend and started to clean it up. While doing this, I was wondering if I should use an electric motor instead. What do you think?
| >>954943 oh I saw someone irl yell and speed down the bicycle lane with something like this as a kid. Didn't realize this is a thing people did
| >>954967
I mean, you already have the other engine, maybe make the electric one the next project. Or just buy a Ducati Futa.
| Can you read the art of motorcycle maintenance and tell us if it's fact
| >>955410 Yeah! I spent the weekend cleaning the rust off the frame and giving it a fresh coat of paint. Honestly, the way it's going it'll just look like a beefed up ebike.
| >>955042 absolutely not. if a single piece breaks you have to pay lots of money. ice engines are also more intuitive, easier to work on and you can find spare parts easily

| I found a 60hp motorcycle engine for only $150. I don't think it would be too difficult to hook it up to a bicycle frame and then some further work to make it functioning. I don't know, do you think this could be a decent summer project?
