Parts to put an engine on an occ

[GW's Motorized]

There are kits to put a bigger size rear tire on both the front and rear end, and a bigger seat post also move the seat post back

also at-least here you can walk into motorcycle stores and they will put used tires on the rims free.
Makes it taller also and the used ones are more then enough for MB

Thanks, I'll look into it

They will give you free tires and install them for free too?

Yeah, they told me it costs them less to give them to me then to dispose of them so Win Win.

i got places around here that i can walk into and get free nuts,bolts and stuff because it costs them more in time then it does just to let me walk out in a few dollars worth of hardware

mom and pop shops rule

I've got a few local shops like that around here. The local hardware store let's ya walk out with a few bolts if it's under a dollar. They also sell me spray paint even though I'm under 18. They know what I use it for so they have no problem selling it to me.

There is a bike in pretty beat shape somewhat local (30 miles). He wants $175 for it. I'm tempted to go look at it... BUUUT... if it's too small, it's not worth the time/effort.

I Just noticed the part where you said Beat Shape for 175$ i wouldn't get because i get OCCs for 70-150 in Good Condition

@GW's Motorized full stock with CNC mount kit and a flex pipe this is what your looking at, no offset adapter, gas can mounts not fliped, no ape hangers, non elongated holed sprocket, stock chain

I took stock bike, stock engine slapped it on with a flex pipe, and boom photo for ya

hope this helps you what room you have to work with.

@DistantWolrld101 also posted this elsewhere that shows the motor mounts and flex pipe and where to get it, that fits this OCC he is showing you.

Idle problem and poor performance

Somewhat finished this build, boy was this one a pain in my ass. I’m not familiar with fabricating an engine mount as this bike isn’t suited for china dolls so it was a lot of trial and error, wasted hours, wasted money etc. I guess we learn from our mistakes though. Anyways, I fired it up, ran...

Awesome, thanks. For individual parts should I just look on eBay? And I think I might be able to use some coupling nuts for the gas tank to fit it on there.

It's all up in the air right now. My dad has talked about putting an engine on that bike since I gave it to him, and that was around a year ago. He only brings up putting an engine on it when it is in his way and he has to move it somewhere else.

If it's for ya dad you don't wanna break what hips he has maybe make it a three wheelie

That thing's cool, but he wants to make it a motorcycle.
