I plan on buying just an engine without a mount kit and would like to hear from anyone who made their own mount kit that is chain drive.
Reason I want to do this is because buying a mount kit separately is very costly.
I will need to buy a few engine parts still such as throttle, gas tank, etc.
But aside from that I need to build a mount kit.
Those who built their own mount kits can you tell me how much you spent on all the parts to build it? Is there any way to build one without welding (I don't have a welder)?
Also don't forget to give me tips. I don't have my engine yet and am asking this question prior to making my decision.
I plan on getting a pocket bike engine with the stage 2 kit on it. The Dax GT50R.
Don't want a mount kit from Dax because they are too costly for me.
Also what kind of rear sprockets will I need to be able to use the chain and to be able to pull it with the engine.
(Dax help with this if you read this)
Would I need to mess with any gearing ratios to keep it reliable? Like you know 5:1 ratio used, etc.? (Idk what that is, but that's what I read)
Thanks.
