will an HT motor fit my needs?

I would rather pay the extra

I sent you PM, you will obviously pay more for Honda GX 50, Titan 50, Mitsu TLE 43 or Tanaka 40.

Anything from $190 (Titan) to $300 + Mitsu and Tanaka.

All engines I mentioned will go coast to coast with no trouble as was documented by many people traveling US and the world.

Can HT do it?

the Robin will also take you coast to coast

can HT do it without many break downs
just from what I have seen ---------------- heck no

MM -- as he rides that thing

Obviously Robin can, I mentioned Subaru Robin in one of my previous posts on this thread.

Honest post, that's sums it up for HT kits, drive 5 miles or less, blew 2 HT engines in one season, bring your toolshed with you when you ride, carry a spare engine with you. LOL

I rather PEDDLE my bike 5 miles every time I need to, instead of buing and riding HT kit.

Why bother when for a few more bucks you can buy engine you can ride coast to coast all day and night alone?

Reputable and dependable engines, no junk here:

Subaru 25 and 35, Honda25 and 35, Honda GX50 (all 4 strokes)

Mitsubishi TLE33, TLE 43, Tanaka33 Tanaka 40 (all 2strokes)

Honda and Mitsu clones: Huasheng 50, Titan 50 (4 strokes), Mitsu clones 52 cc, 40-43 cc (2 strokes) Theese clone engines may be or not as good as originals but so far they have a record of outlasting and outperforming HT junk as far durability and being trouble free.

My HT is trouble free(as long as I don't tinker with it), and it sees WOT all the time. The risk with HTs is a bad batch/supplier, if you got a good batch they are very reliable.

If you want more piece of mind get a 4 stroke, but the frame mounted ones also have reliability issues with the gearbox, and the rear mounted ones while reliable are an eyesore.
