about the install, if you have a digital camera (most folks do) and if your mechanical skills are about my level (pretty close to non existant) I would suggest a mentor who is willing to sit with you on one of the instant messengers and walk you through it. AFTER you have read the tips here of course.

Trust me ask don't guess.....

You could email the beer I suppose but it would probably be flat...

Well .. I just sat the engine up to the frame , with and without the mounts and it just won;t fit on the frame that I have right now... The "Universal" mount, well, that just makes it fit WORSE because it brings it even taller than before.. and I would never be able to change the spark plug either! heh

I will look for another frame or just chunk the whole idea!

Thanks yall
Michelle

PS PLEASE mail me with help !! I could use it!
I would suggest the Schwinn Point Beach. A really easy install. I got mine together in less than a afternoon. I wouldn't go used, as I found that when I tried the used route, spokes broke, and other problems.
