Looks good to me, it has v brakes (coaster brakes not suitable for high speeds motorized bike can get up to) and a small diameter metal frame. One thing - remove the fenders!!! Many here have crashed and damaged their bike badly because of fenders falling off or such. I strongly recommend you remove them completely, or if you really don’t want to at least threadlock the bolts with medium strength threadlocker and tighten them down really well. Good luck!
 
My friend that lives across my small town has one and I have ridden it and it is very nice as a bicycle. I think it would make a sweet moped especially with a jackshaft and suspension fork. Others in this and the other forum have motorized them so you know the engine will fit and chain will line up.
 
The bike should be fine, just be careful with those fenders and make sure they are tight and strong enough so the braces don't break from vibration. I've read horror stories about fenders that break and get stuck in the spokes leading to very bad things happening.
 
I plan on putting a front disc brake in and would i need extended crank arms if I get the centrifugal clutch upgrade for the 2 stroke kit I plan on buying
 
He's talking about adding roughly 1&1/4 inch of width by adding a centrifugal clutch. I know my pedals wouldn't clear.
 
No probs just didn't want ounce to not have what he needs and be like "they told me it would fit :( "
