I am actually considering turning one of these push bikes into the motorized one, when i have the fund's available. Seem's like a fun project & shouldn't cost a lot i hope?

Thought's anyone?

P.S-Sorry, dont mean to hijack this thread.

Seen one in the flesh the other day, they weigh a ton and have crappy cheap components! Be ok for scooting to the shop for milk once a week but other than that .... Pure scrap!

Not even much to look at, only thing going for it is the Kawasaki sticker!

i'm sure its not kawasaki making the bikes... but a pretty lousy decision by Kawasaki to allow ??? to run their name through the mud with this cheap garbage.

Dual suspension bikes are 100% fkn useless for anything but downhill biking... and these el' cheapo dual suspension bikes would be shite at that too.

You need to pay some good $$$ for a dual suspension bike for it to have high quality suspension components that will lock-out the rear shock as you pedal... otherwise a good part of the power you are pushing through the pedal is being lost in the rear suspension flexing.

Go a hard-tail MTB.
