I have the motor and I am new to the whole bike + motor thing... would it be a dumb I idea to mount the ms440 on a bike. I'm a need for speed kinda guy and I know that chainsaw has some big power would it be possible to do this? and if it is possible how fast could I run the bike I know this motor is 71cc Engine Power: 4 kW (5.4 bhp)

Sure it will work. You need to gear it down though. A strong rack would hold it

If you can rig up a sthill with a chain drive i've got to see that.
