Hi guys - I have this really really awesome old school muscle bike that I want to put a motor on - but I dont really have any to money to support the project and I am saving up for a carbon fiber 29er for my MTB racing at the same time. I really dont need much to complete the build. (I have everything except a motor) I am wondering if anyone has an old 66 (or 50cc) chinagirl sitting around. HeL L I dont even need the cylinder, head or piston / only a bottom end (everything else I have in parts) SOOOOO... If anybody has an old blown motor with a good bottom end or just a motor that they no longer need I would be very grateful. I will pay for shipping (w/ paypal) and may even be able to give ya some cash ~20 for the motor. Here are some pictures of the bike (a china engine fits like a glove with plenty of headroom)
(in this picture it has another failed motor attempt on it)

If you're paying for shipping and possibly $20 for the motor, thats not panhandling.

Here you a good deal on a new 48cc bottom end $57.94 + $15.00 shipping, not a bad deal.

If you have a jug and piston for the engines that have the 6mm studs here is an even better deal on a bottom end.

If I could help you out on this with some unused parts I would but I dont have anything laying around like that right now, good luck though and maybe someone else can lend you a hand on this deal.
Peace, map

Never handle your pan in public....there are jobs to be had if you look hard enough. Don't give up.

Just grab the handle bars and twist the right grip......you'll go places! Age is no barrier unless you think it is....

Boy, I needed a good laugh! Thanks Cruiser.

Moto- Sorry I don't have any parts man, somebody will probably get at you in a pm with something they've got. Hang in there, save a dollar a day.
