That I'm still wondering why they manufacture engines with a 32mm motor mount to put on bicycles with a 42mm tube to mount it on. Current projects are Micargi Pantera GTS/GT5-GGG-2 66cc and a Schwinn Landmark/Skyhawk GT2B 48cc. Right now both are still pretty much still in the box while I continue to gather information. If I ever get them finished then it's on to putting a recently acquired 2008 1300cc Hayabusa engine in a Huffy Cranbrook.

Welcome to the forum. I guess your 'busa powered bike will top the 500cc Jawa speedway replica that Venice was trying to convince one member to build.

they make smaller size motormounts 'cause the design is based on a 1950's engine, and all bikes back them used smaller tubing. it wasn't till recently that they started making crappier bikes that would fall apart if they didn't go overkill on the tubes. (at least that's how i see it.)

after the hayabusa/cranbrook cripples you, maybe you could build a V8 powered wheelchair.;)
