Any info about putting engines on bicycles?



I'm interested in finding an engine that will fit on my pedal bicycle. I'm lazy, don't feel like pedaling any more.

There are some battery powered bikes, where a battery will help the advance of the bike, but it is not an engine !! In other terms, you still have to pedal....
Otherwise, you can always buy a small scooter with a 50 cc engine. but you will have to stop at the red lights and won't be able to use the pedestrian pathways.
Your choice!!!
even with a pedal bike you have to stay off sidewalks and stop at stoplights... answerer above me is daft
The amount of money you'll be spending on a motor and the agrevation of welding motor mounts, fitting drive sprockets, buying & fitting on a fuel tank and a whole lot of other stuff - you can get a good used scooter for a couple of hundred bucks.
Many years ago there was acompany called "Whizzer" that made a bolt on motor kit, and they are making them again. I believe that you can buy the kit or the complete bicycle with motor. They are relatively expensive however. Do a search for Whizzer or motorized bicycles there are actually several different companies out there making them.
