Puch powered bike

I've searched a few forums and either I'm not searching correctly or it hasn't been done. I am thinking about putting a Puch E-50 motor on a bike.
Is it too crazy? Am I dreaming?
Parts are everywhere and the Puch E-50 has some power.
What do you MB experts and builders think about such a crazy idea?

How about a link to this engine?

I'm computer challenged, but Moped Army - Swarm and Destroy is where I have been looking.
Be forewarned: Its a free for all of Free Speech in there>
A site: Moped Riders Association :: Index is a great source for Puch info.

A Puch E-50 has about 2 HP and develops a lot of torque.
Parts are easy to get, and they (Puch distributors) imported millions into the US in the 70s and 80s

I have a "Pook" bicycle.

I've been corrected in the past: Rhymes with book.

That depends on what part of Ohio you are from.

I'm tipping my hand about Puch moped engines...never mind.
Pay no attention that they are reliable after thirty years and were built with materials and methods superior to the chengines more widely available today.
Ignore that part about Daimler
