Welcome to the forum

I assume you are looking at the Chinese 2-stroke kits? I'd go with bicycle engine kit, bike engine, bicycle engine, bicycle motor or Spooky Tooth Cycles - Motorized Bicycles: Gas Powered and Electric Bikes - Home

And to find the demensions of the frame you will need check this thread http://motorbicycling.com/f3/what-ki...mmend-510.html

Have any questions feel free to ask, always someone here willing to help out.

I recommend a bike with a good solid steel frame. These things take a lot of vibration and good welds are a must!
