At this point, you should be in possession of a running, albeit somewhat uncomfortable, electric motorcycle. It is at this point that we recommend adding foot pegs and a seat of some sort.

Our seat was made by folding rags into the general shape we wanted, and then wrapping the rags with with duct tape. Still uncomfortable, but slightly less so. 

As far as safety goes, we recommend a motorcycle helmet (a bike helmet at the very least) and that you probably should avoid riding this in the rain.
