A small black front hub motor kit would be very nice on the bike. I have one on a heavier cruiser and use it on grades and hills, still very quiet and you hardly notice it on the bike.

That is not a bike you ride on fast road rides or climbs. It is more of a fun/easy cruiser so it is fine. Heavy as hell to do anything more. It is as heavy as many E-MTBs, but without the motor.
