Hello Everyone,
I was the proud owner of a 66cc motor from Motovelo until I found multiple problems that the company was not willing to fix. I did everything possible to correct the problems, which still ended in failure.
I went in on a deal with Snarfu (a member here really named Jonas Anderson) to buy 4 Super Rat motors at whole sale price. (Only trusted him since I "knew" him in real life) I was going to sell two of them to cover most of the costs of the two that I would keep. Either way, I never heard a single update on the order in over 4 months after I paid him. So I am ready to accept the fact that I might need to start looking at other options, or give up MB, which isn't going to happen.
(I found the information on Gasbike.net)
The 66cc motor I already owned didn’t fit in my small mountain bike frame as is, so I had to put a slant head on it for clearance reasons.
I have a picture HERE:

I hear that the 48/49cc share the same lower end as the 66cc therefore making the 66cc less balanced and adding vibration.
2. Does the 48/49cc have a noticeable amount less vibration than the 66cc?
(Does anyone own both to compare?)
3. Does the 48/49cc have noticeably smaller outside dimensions than the 66cc?
(Does anyone own both to compare?)
4. Does the Super Rat have noticeably larger outside dimensions than the 66cc?
(Does anyone own both to compare?)
5. Does anyone know how well the Super Rat and the SBP Shift kit work together?
Thanks for all your knowledge in advance!
