A mate of mine is thinking about buying one of these http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-341637781.htm for his push bike. Is this the one to go for, or are there better engine kits out there?

A mate of mine is looking for a cheap way to get to work and he has an old push bike lying around at home, so why not?

Still need a rego though, I think it has to be under 300 watts for no rego.

Motrax also have a 70cc kit for an extra $100 but best of all is to use a shifter kit http://motrax.co.nz/index.php/compon...category_id=37 and then you can use your bike gears as well (instead of one fixed gear).
Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow arent just the 4 cycles of an engine

...a real cheap way for your MATE to get to work would be to use the pushbike...

I've been thinking along those lines myself, I think it would be a hoot, and you can't get much more "retro" as far as motorcycles are concerned. Another person mentioned registration but I don't think that's required and I wouldn't bother if it was.
Have a look at the bicycle shop in New Brighton - they sell and install kits as well as completed bikes. They should be able to offer some advice.

most of them are chinese,who have yet to grasp the importance of thermal stability in two stroke pistons,due to the peculiarity of the 2T operating temperature characteristics as regards heat distribution and thermal transfer.
in other words,they are made out of used noodles.
avoid the chinese ones and you will be fine

He lives out in the countryside so pedalling a push bike into town every day isn't really an option.
