Default worksman and a huasheng 4 stroke

i did some research and almost everyone says you cannot fit a 4 stroke kit into a worksman newsboy frame, but i recently saw a pic of 1, however it seems like the frame was modified a bit... any thoughts?

The motor shown on that pic is not a 50 cc Huasheng.

It is a Lifan type side valve motor that is shorter than a Huasheng.

I think that bike was made by Tyraslider.

Yes Deff a Newsboy but much modified. Spread at the back to accomidate a multi speed hub. prob spread from 110 to 135mm. I did the same on a Worksman Cycle-Truck; and ya thats a Doodlebug motor ( 97cc Lifan ) Phisically larger and heavier but shorter top to bottem by just a bit. Read "just enough." Still looks tight!

But is it possible to fit a 4 strike kit into a worksman with light mods if any?

I have access to a monkey wrench, a socket wrench and a screw driver... Haha I'll try to get a worksman, maybe I'll find someone who can help me make a loop for the frame
