The 212 will work just like the 99cc. I have built a couple fast race bikes and ran em hard. Just change the rod and push rods and all is good. Check some of my old post for pictures.

I will.....it really isnt a build persee (i'm using a 2008 whizzer ambassador) with a few mods so I can install the TAV on their shaft bearings...gonna try a 70mm pulley off that first and if it takes off okay leave it be. I wanted to use the 99 predator I have here but its a pain to get clutched on the TAV with the 5/8 shaft...I'll probably sell it to buy stuff instead.
its headed to the shop this weekend.....motor mounting

Thats what i noticed to when i checked them out on some fun carts at a go-cart shop close to work.

Still think you can fool someone with the 49cc stickers? lol
