But what else do I need just for it to move?

Also, add engine mount to the list... How would I make an engine plate?

flat peice of steel with the engine bolt holes drilled in it, then you weld that to the frame of the bike....

Actually,

Wouldn't it be easier to mount the engine over the rear wheel?

Does anyone know if it would work?
Thanks.

that is how i did it but it had a very lop sided feel and a high center of gravity

by **nvmyengine** » Thu Apr 30, 2009 9:51 pm

that would work, it would be just as easy but its not going to be good to ride

Why not just get one of these and take it from there?

This should get you going and them modify from there.

PS: Document your build with pics , it would make good reading.

If you are planning on puting the motor under the seat, make sure you put some chain guards in your plans. It would ruin your day to get caught up in the chain. A guy in town has a bike like the one above. it was actually a Harley branded bike. That thing would haul. It was a hoot to hear him coming up the road.

Put a horizontal engine on a regular (pedal) bike?
