Motor Mount for the OCC Stingray?

[TheDustyShredder]

is buying a motor mount neccesary for the OCC Stingray?

I found a Schwinn OCC chopper bike for 40$. How necessary is it to get the motor mount for this bike? is it something that could be fabbed up pretty easily or what? does anybody have any close up pics I could see? I have the 80 cc Happy Time kit and I work at a hardware store, I think I could...

If I may just revive this:

I'm building a stingray up with an electric start 198cc engine from Duromax, 4 stroke. My thoughts here are either buying that cnc mount and a cnc plate, or making one by bending a plate to match the curve, and two 1/8" thick straps, also bent to match the curve, bolting those onto the frame securely, and then having another plate bolted onto the engine, and then bolt that onto the base plate with washers and rubber spacers for vibration control. It would be admittedly ugly, but it would work, I hope. I plan on putting a 10 speed cassette on the rear wheel and driving that with the engine, so I don't need an offset. That's provided by the jackshaft.

That poor bike is a death trap, no pedals or chain and the seat post is crushed.

Better than you smacking your pumpkin on the curb.

Lol 'Death trap' is an understatement.... but it's such a shame not to put in a little effort to tidy her up and do the classic some justice. Shame indeed.

I picked up the cheap Ebay schwinn chopper mount off Ebay for AUD$50, fitted it to make sure chain positioning is good, then welded the plate of the mount directly to the base bar of the frame to prevent the engine from moving caused by the vibrations.
