I'm planning on setting out to motorize a bike with a 4 stroke engine, but have run into a bit of a problem. I'm very short (5'0" to be exact) and therefore bikes that I can comfortably ride and get myself on and off without difficulty have frames smaller than a standard frame intended for adults. While bikes with smaller frames are more suited for me, they also have less available space in the frame to house an engine.
This feels like a silly question to ask, but is it necessary to mount the engine upright within the frame? Many of the bikes I've considered building from don't have enough space in the frame to mount the engine upright, but could at an angle.
