Hey welcome to the forum! Thanks for posting the pics.
Is this the original bike?

Nice work, 32 mph and an hour is enough for some good fun.

Yup thats the original , it was $899 shipped to my work!
I looked around for a yamaha or honda donor, but they all needed parts and work on the brakes and tires and such, and i wanted to start with a new bike.
lots of fun and very quiet, the belt drive is t-10 toothed and is from the motor to a jackshaft to provide additional gear reduction beyond the stock front and rear sprockets give
