Never a hardly.
Probably a ZRX 1400 or similar.
Plenty of power but more upright position and no fairing.

Yep that's the one.
I'm 65 and that's why I sold the 1100.
Too much stretching for the bars and getting bounced around by the sports suspension.

Here are the motorbicycles I have built over the years.
If you are like me, some builds were smooth and some were frustrating due mostly to clearance issues. What was you favorite one to build and ride and your least favorite?

My favorite ones to build and ride were the shifters. They have freewheel cranks that the gearbox/chain hooks up to and you can use the bikes gears to shift into low to climb mountains, or shift in to high to cruise the flats. Least favorite was the China 68/80cc kit that is shown with the trailer I built. Those kits are all around not worth your time to build, because the kits are a P.O.S. What other motorbicycles have you built?

I built my first friction drive in 2004 with a Tecumsah chain saw motor using a kit from a company in Montana. The drive rollers were made of wood and the kit came with a variety of sizes. I put that on a 21 speed mountain bike.
In 2010 I broke my back and after two years of recovery I was still weak. I built an electric friction drive for an aluminum single speed cruiser.
In 2015 I bought my first Staton friction drive using the Honda 25cc 4 stroke and put it on my Diamonback Hybrid with 700c tires and 21 speeds.
I put that motor on two other bikes. The last one was a Schwinn which became my worse build due to rear brake clearance and support strut gear issues. That Schwinn drove me crazy till I worked it all out.
I rode the Schwinn from San Diego County to Imperial County November 2016 pulling a bike trailer I built using my aluminum walker that I had to use when I fractured my back.
Bike I just built is a Critical 7speed cruiser with the Zenoah 430rc. The bike trailer doubles as a cat cage. Cat likes to ride.
The Schwinn is the one that drove me crazy.
