[quote]its 2 stroke right? you could rebuild it for less than 100 bucks... i did several yamaha blasters for about 150, thats including gaskets/piston, and having the cylinder honed. and now i have my own hone so i can do it even cheaper unless it needs bored/QUOTE]

yeah its 2 stroke and the rebuild kit is $32 but i just like 4 strokes better

Ok, here she is, no bars on it cause I lended the risers to my friend.




Front down tube, had to weld the bent piece in there so the motor would come back out and it has to sit over a little father so the chain lines up.


The other side you dont have to do anything with, I just hacked both the front down tubes out cause I wasnt sure how exactly the motor was going to sit.


Rear motor mount.


Janky ass top motor mount, fuck it it works.


An easier way to mount the motor would be run some kind of spacers, or a few washers and drill new holes where the old motor mounted. The Honda XR/CRF 50/70 and the Ching Chong imitation motors use four bolts that hold the foot pegs to the bottom of the motor in the dirtbike. As you can see it wouldnt be hard to do it that way if you didnt want to mess with fabbing mounts.


Then you have to flip the rear wheel around and take off the dinky little sprocket for the weed eater motor and weld a 50 sprocket to the hub, as well as a brake anchor on the other side. Take your time and make sure its on there square and centered.




I ran my exhaust right out the center. The fairing will fit back on no problem, I took it off cause it was all zip tied together. Stock fuel tank will work too.



And of course. (yeah Ive looped it quite a few times)

I could, but its not really all that tough, I did it about two years ago and it was my "lets learn how to weld" project, as you can tell from some of the pics they arent the greatest but its held up.

Ebay, search pitbike motor. The Lifan 110s are good motors, your going to need a wiring harness too, some of the ebay motors come with them, if not I just might have another one around.

You can run the fairings, you have to notch a little out on the left side to clear the flywheel cover.

It sure is, keeps the chain from rubbing on the swingarm.
