find something with a big frame and circle tubes, i'm getting sick of making these offset mounts for the carbs. and custom mounts for oversized tubes.

Something to consider, if they are readily available where you are: a vintage cruiser. My JC Higgins, the Hawthornes, old Schwinns, and the like. Most of them are really close to "plug-and-play" where bike motors are concerned. On mine, all steel tubes were 1 inch diameter. No need for any special mounts. And, depending on condition, a great many can be had for around $100. Some are more heavy-duty than others, but generally the quality was better back in the day. If you go this route, make certain the frame and forks are not cracked. You'll have a better bike in the end.

If you run across a vintage bike for sale and want to know more, you could try getting hold of Bairdco, SilverBear, Barely_Awake, or some of the others here who have vintage rides. They'd be able to tell you more about what you'd be getting.
