View attachment 6677Yes Highwayman, you can sort of see from the size of it that it wouldn't fit. No classic cruiser frame would fit that mounting tray. The adjustable one is made so it specifically fits the classic cruiser cos those frames take the engine really well even though you need more chain length for them. I'd recommend staying with the cruiser cos it's a nice bike to ride and getting an extra section welded into the middle so you can use the end pieces that are already made to fit the downtube and seat post tube. There are some great Felt cruisers but I think they have problems allowing the engine to fit under the top tube. Only a few frames can fit these motors and some are so nearly perfect but 2mm too small and therefore no good. You could maybe just order an adjustable tray from bicycle-engines.com and if you live in the USA the transport costs will be reasonable. That might well be the cheapest solution. To set up a cruiser frame really nicely you really need high rise bars and that will invove replacing the brake and gear cables. There is always a lot of expense. The picture below shows a chinese cruiser frame made by Grubee specially for the 4-strokes and would probably fit your tray. They say they have v brakes front and rear PLUS a rear drum brake but the picture shows no rear v-brake. They also have front hydraulic forks. They are a direct copy of the old classic cruiser frame but the lines are all wrong and the whole design is actually rather horrid. If they sell for about US$210 they would be probably worth it but anymore than that and I'd not bother with them. The Schwinn cruiser quality has plumeted in recent years and they are now overpriced in comparison to the reliable brands.
WRONG The short plate will fit ANY HUFFY. FYI there are ZERO beach cruisers sold in China.....These bicycle kits were designed for the Chinese. Grubee does his best to Americanize them. This is an annoyance to the factory owners because the USA buys the least kits but causes the most problems. Attributes many of you backstabbing whiners can relate too.
