Hi, I did not measure but about 3 inches ? I need a better camera.

I will show a picture of the new one so you can see. They changed the frame alot.

Thanks, motorbiker

Hi, Yeah I take the stickers off them right away !

That bike gets a ride every day ! That is one nice running motor ! I can't find any more like it. I bought it on eBay for $102. What a deal !

They cost more on eBay now. Gas is way up and people are getting their tax rebate checks.

I bought an orange new model one.

The good news is that it is easy to make an engine mount for the front.

Thanks, motorbiker
What kind of mount did you use? (orangedog)

What is the standard practice for the greendog?

Hi, I like Matt's way.

Put rubber radiator or heater hose on the frame, tape around it and rubber mount the motor.

For the front mount cut a spacer and drill 4 holes in it. Two for the studs in the motor and two outside of those holes and put a U bolt around the frame.

Weld a piece of sheet metal shaped to meet the curve in the u bolt where it meets the rubber. Do the same for the spacer where it meets the rubber hose on the frame. Double nut everything.

I filed the back mount to allow rubber mounting in the back too.

Rubber mounted 2 stroke Moon Dog is smooth !
