Buying my first 4 stroke

When i put mine on, i put a THIN and i mean a THIN layer of red loctite around the base of it then i made sure it was tight and so far mine hasn't moved or tried to spin, and i make sure i always try to take off slow, and i apply blue loctite on all the bolts, and i know this can make it PERM but i plan on being very careful with my wheel and being a good boy with it :3 and so should you

that is also why i brought up the mag wheel idea
 
I'll probably just try the loctite approach. I don't want to put another $150 into this. Well my bike arrives tomorrow evening then I'll get the hub and seatpost sizes, and finally I can order the engine parts.

Seatpost is for a shock absorber seatpost.

Oh i almost forgot word of warning when it comes to the tank, idk what you will get but the one i got had real sensitive copper studs in it and when the nut got quarter to half way up they started to bend so i had to take the bracket it off the front end and just have the back end hold it down, i've had no problem with it so far but i just wanted to give you a heads up just in case.

Your studs were made of copper? How can that possibly be hard enough to torque a nut on?

So here is the exact kit that I bought : https://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Stroke-49CC-GAS-PETROL-MOTORIZED-BICYCLE-BIKE-ENGINE-MOTOR-KIT-With-Belt-Gear/132055995791?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
Tracking says it should be here Friday.

What do you guys think of this stock chain tensioner? It worked fine in my 2 stroke build, but if I remember correctly, it really looked and felt like a piece of garbage. I think one of those spring loaded ones could be beneficial.
Use stock tensioner to stretch the chain then even if you have to get some half links to get the perfect length go tensioner less

other wise just fleabay a new roller and a longer bolt there is some good ones for a cple dollers and the longer bolt helps in case you need to add washers say behind it to make a 100% perfect line up

Seems this has a 1 piece crank. Are all cranks the same size or do I need to measure this as well? Also, if I extend my pedals out more, wont that mess with the original bike chain alignment?
