Two words: Instant Smile! : ) I just wanted
to let everyone at Golden Eagle know what
a wonderful product they have created. I
think that it is brilliant and at the same
time, very easy to operate, assemble, and
maintain. I have a cheaper bike from Wal-Mart
that I attached the engine kit to. Installation
from opening the box to whizzing down the
road at 40 miles per hour took me about an
hour. The Golden Eagle has since been my
main mode of transportation. Within the first
48 hours of ownership I completed the break-in
process after riding it from NC to Raleigh,
NC and back, on a 3 day week-end. I achieved
approximately 250 miles per gallon of fuel,
and accomplished the 160 mile ride in approximately
six hours with no problems at all. I only
weigh about 150 pounds, and I ordered the
highway gear and the exhaust so I average
in the high 30's to 40 miles per hour on
flat ground. I now have approximately 800
miles on the bike and am contemplating another
Raleigh trip. I look forward to any new products
or advancements in development in the future.
I would recommend this kit to anyone who
just wants a lot of fun or simply cheap transportation.
I have received more looks on this bike than
you can imagine. Many seem awestruck that
a bicycle is capable of such speeds and is
totally 100% street legal in North Carolina.
By the way, the Golden Eagle also does great
on the beach in the sand. I wouldn't consider
any other kit; Golden Eagle is in a class
by itself.
