Alright, Ive had this bike for about 6 or 7 years now, and ive taken care of it as it was my own child.
Had an accident about 5 years back in which the front fork was bent, but thats the only flaw.
Now, I used to have a gas scooter on which the frame kept on giving me problems and literally, every day something always went wrong. First I tried to turn left, but the thing kept on going straight....Then, while I was fixing it...the tire went flat. So that was the last straw with it.
I decided to part it and use the engine on the bike. The motor also has an electric start. It also has a built in generator to be able to run the lights, along with the ability to recharge the battery for the Electric Start. It has a one speed 5:1 ratio tranny.
The engine is a 2 stroke 50cc engine. On the scooter it had a top speed of 45 mph.
I started the project about 2 weeks ago, and so far I'm almost done.
I used a Rack that used to belong to the safety seat of a Child. So I figured it would be able to hold it, taken by the point that my 9 mo. old weights more than my motor. On that I placed a Stainless Steel Plate. The plate I obtained from where I work. It used to belong an air pump.
I cut off the motor mount from the scooter, and bolted it onto the plate, which I attached to the rack with a few U-bolts.
All I have left to do would be to connect the Engine to the Rear tire to be able to use it with JUST the motor for now. After all that is tested and works, Im going to place the Original Crank set on the OPPOSITE side of where its now. I also need to reconnect all the wires, and find a way to set up the Brake Lights, Turn Signals, and Headlight.
So what you guys think? any helpful criticism??
P.S. I want to thank NEAT TIMES (Ron) For all his help!!! Made my build much easier.

Jrol, You Have More Done Than I Realized. Imho, The Easy Way Would Be To Get A Multi Speed Rear Wheel, Remove The Cassette And In Stall The Two Sprocket`s Like Is Detailed In "cvt Rack Mount" And You Can Leave Your Pedal Power On The Right Side. "TncScooters.com" has the freewheel adapter you need and the sprocket for $17. + s/h. you have a #25 chain sprocket on your gear box. "cvt rack mount", Ron .
