Got a picture of the motor and the frame you're putting it on? We might be able to help you by remote control. First thing before you start, you want to take out the governor and the low oil cut out switch if it has one. Do you have all the cutting, grinding and drilling tools?

They make a billet rod for that motor. Gearboxes are out there maybe use a CVT transmission. Micargi predator, micargi stealth some other bike's frames will work, beach cruiser.

What kinda cutting grinding and drilling tools do I need cause there is a cutting torch we have a few angle grinders a bunch of hand held drills and theres a drill press I think they r called here is a pic of the bike and motor

First off you'll have to make a base plate for the motor to sit on, pretty much the same width as the motor but a couple inches longer, or just buy one.

I prefer to make one because a bicycle motor doesn't need the adjusting slots.
One of those should get you going.

You can buy 2 types of motor mount. A flat adjustible mount or a seat CNC seat tube mount for that engine. That way the cylinder would be up and down instead of the cylinder pointed towards the rear tire (first pic). The worksman drop loop bike is nice, expensive though. There is performance parts for the 160. That frame is worth some money so up to you if you weld. Quality bike not a huffy. 4 strokes are pretty cool I learned that with experience. Many people will say either go for a 2 smoke because it's simpler or get a clone 4 stroke. Go for originality and don't let the negative critics get to you. Currently restoring an 80's Honda G100.

Ozzy a lot of folks use those Honda 163cc motors for racing. Probably more sites and racing parts are made for that motor than any other.
