Funny, I just saw one of those today in front of a drug store, the kid said he took it everywhere and loved it, I think that would be way better than a Goped.

They are illegal in Australia otherwise I would definitely go for one of those. :thumb:
cause of 2stroke? hell gopeds are legal there. ( and they DO make a 4stroke variant of these

Gopeds are also illegal here as well! doesnt matter if 2 or 4 stroke. They are illegal becasuse they have no roadworthy or insurance to be driven on the road.
You are only allowed to ride them in private carparks.

i built a scott waimea using the engine kit linked above.  gps'ed at 54.9 MPH it crakcked the magnesium wheel. and bent frame. GOD that was fun tbh. but this was before legs went to shaZam!. plans on this are to get ymself to and from doc and work/s, and to hunt down the sonofabitch who stole my goped. once found goped will be reposessed and sold to offset the cost of this build

Yes sucks to say the least
certain states in US are like this. here in east tn is anythign 50cc and under is legal w/o any licensure or anything. the engine kit listed as 80cc is actually 66cc but identical to 49.9cc i pictured in my trek i used to own. had a cop give me hell once for hitting 41 in a 25. said thats larger than 49 cc. i said, fine feel sure, take my toolset, tear it apart. once im proven right, you will pay me the cost of reassy. with new gaskets. does come with an MSO in case i wish to license it as a moped. i remove any decals showing its true size. its rated hp is 7.9 at 7k rpms also above the legal 4.5 limit. but i kept the receipt from the purchase of the treks kit

easy to do with mso etc. i know many aussies who LEGALLY ride them. far kinder than the semi global warming scare. uses far less fuel. the 66cc works great hauls my 140lb body up the hills to my home. 3 ways to my house 2 of which are uphill. actually all 3 are. but like ht escurve one

easy way around that. they coem wiht a clutch lockout. you see leos coming or up ahead, shut engine off and lock clutch in place. and pedal. so youre legal. once past em, then pop clutch restart engine and off you go.  :cheers: i found one of these for 75 bux at friends pawn shop
a haro MTB which i can motorise
we ask when someone wants to sell how much they want or are looking to get, guy said 50, we both said, ( since it had helmet rack and pump, we said thats is too lwo well give you 75? guy was like ok
so if my legs dont give otu on me during my goped search again tomorrow, ill be picking thsi oen up monday. im going broke thanks to thieves. working 3 jobs. @ pawn shop to pay for doctor, at car lot to pay for medications and at pizza place to eat. and also at pawn shop on watches for my own income. i go in from 1pm to 2pm for my own income. from 2pm to 6pm for their work, then to pizza place from 6pm to 11pm for other job. mentally im f%&ked idk how much more of this a guy can take without goin off ze deep end. adidasguy you helped me out a month back and that my friend am eternally grateful for. am looking for a cheap recumbent bike to motorise, if not il grab this 75 dollar haro, then save up the money and stuff an engine into it so i cna get to docs every month or more if called in.
