id like to put an engine on a Firmstar rebel delux( pictured below)

im curious on how the mounting works on these since its not a "vee" frame.

i was thinking of using a Grumbee skyhawk 66cc 2 stroke.

what changes would i have to make to get this engine to fit?

thanks ahead of time!

I'm actually in the works of making a bracket right now for the same exact reason. My idea requires welding and gusseting of the bracket to the frame. I've also pondered about adding in a SRAM i-Motion 9 rear disc hub and setting up a SBP shift kit if at all possible. Any other input from more knowledgeable forum members on the bracket?

I'll be sure to post pics as work continues

I dont know much about making custom front mounts so it looks like i will be doing a bunch of research for the next few days.
Ill post pictues once its finished.

venice motor bikes, i saw on your website you have some pretty sick bikes and you work on stretch bikes and choppers. Any other tips on building this bike correctly?
