    This is hands down one of the coolest fucking things I've ever seen.
    I have a 125cc supermoto but I love bicycles too. Have been pretty interested in the motorised bike kits for a while aswell.
    This thing here is an amazing combination, really really nice man.

    That's a truely ingenious bike. Can it be registered as a moped with that shifter on it. What was your opinion of it after the 500 mile ride.

    Is there footage of the race ? I just seen the bike . Like millions of others im sure in Maxim mag . I like it for many reasons one being off road capable wile still being small and lightweight . Really got me thinking of applications .

    Do you need a license plate I saw one on the back of your motoped. Or did you just use it for support?

    I am looking to buy one of these bikes but can not find them can you tell me how much are they and where can I find them I live in Rhode Island ad an outdoors man an I think it would be a good bike for hunting/scouting for deer if outfitted with a small trail or to carry equipment and game.

    If you only fill up one of the two tanks, does it turn in the direction of the filled tank by itself or does it apply additional pressure on the steering?
    I was looking to buy one soon and i wanted to know how to handle it well

      milk gauthier In general, you would want to keep the weight about the same on each side. But when we were on the trip, I don't think we made it a point to keep the tanks balanced or ever noticed any handling issues from there being more gas in one side or the other.

    Is the waterproof charger box for your electronic devices something that you made?

    • @kev7777777777
      @kev7777777777  9 років тому

      Justin Quintanilla Yes, I did make that myself. It's like a waterproof ammo box that I got from a surplus center.

      +kev7777777777 What kind of gopro is yours? Did it work well? I'd like to take this bike and basically do the same thing, but to visit a friend in Washington. Also where did you buy the horn, lights, and sidebags at?

    Hi, how difficult is it to pedal the bike when out of gas and fully loaded up? I've been thinking of picking up one myself.

      Willie Escaba You would not want to pedal very far or up a hill when fully loaded.

    Years later, what do you think of this? Do you still have it?

      I had not ridden for a few years because I started riding an electric bike that I made. But recently I put a 95cc big bore kit on it and using it to do long rides on the weekend and go stealth camping.

      @@kev7777777777 ah ok. There was one for $1500 in the local ads but I'd seen some negative reviews so still hesitating. That's awesome that you put one together...

    What is the brand name of the waterproof box you show toward the end of the video?
    Thanks in advance!

      +John Mumaw It was a waterproof ammo case that was modified. I hope it comes as part of the bike once they start full production.

    • @johnmumaw7738
      @johnmumaw7738 9 років тому

      +Kirk Styler Thanks, Kirk. They've actually started full production awhile ago and this case won't be included.

      +John Mumaw I can only find them as a pre-order and the dealers I can source all claim they can't get them yet. If anyone knows of a dealer where I can test ride one before purchasing please let me know.

      +John Mumaw I got that off of Ebay - just do a search for "waterproof dry box" and you will find a bunch of different kinds. www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Dry-Waterproof-Storage-Ammo-Box-Camping-Hunting-Fishing-Survival-Case-Green-/271931117738?hash=item3f505b90aa

      +Kirk Styler You could play the Zombie adventure scratcher in the Kansas Lottery to win one for a $2 scratcher.

      +Kirk Styler I got one, just know that their support sucks. I needed some parts for my brand new bike and all they could do was tell me some other websites to go to to look for parts that should work. That's crappy customer service on an item that's over 3200.00.......
