So far, I'm looking at purchasing a "thatsdax" kit for 4 cycle engine. I was wondering if it would be hard to install it to a GMC top-kick dual suspension bike?

I'd hate to buy a $300 bike, $150 kit, then $200 engine totalling over $650, close to $700 everything said and done, and it not work. Sorry for posting in a new thread.

$200 engine is a 3.5hp briggs and stratton engine

I know I will recouperate my investment back in gas on a 30 mile to and from work commute 5 days a week, but I'd hate for everything to not fit.

That engine definitely won't fit. You won't get away with almost any engine using a bike that has rear suspension on the inside of the frame. Some rear suspension bikes have the shock behind the seat tube but those are expensive.

That Briggs is going to be very large. I don't know if any mountain bike will fit it in-frame.

How else can you get a Ferrari, a Cadillac or a Mosserati for under $500 brand new......Made in China....hahaha. Gotta love Kent, I own 2 myself......both aluminum and strong with thousands of hard miles on both.

Full suspension is a great thing to ride on. A rack mount engine is the only way one will fit.
Friction drive with a 2 stroke motor would be lightest.
