Default Back on Two Wheels

Hello everyone,

My name is Fred. I just purchased a clean, used 2008 Schwinn Point Beach. I was going to buy a new one, but this one had just been gone over and tuned up by a big name local bicycle shop and I got for $100. I'd like to make some modifications to using some parts from my son's old Mongoose mountain bike. I'd like to adapt the front fork, and crankset before motorizing it. The over all style will be sort of boardtracker and I'd like use one of those Suzuki JR50 fuel tanks on it.

Since buying it I've removed the rear package tray, changed the handlebars and seatpost. I'm now researching which 4-stroke engine and which shift kit I like best.
