I've seen 250, 400 & 600cc, a bigger motor usually means more chassis modifications. A 125cc dirtbike motor should be plenty for some fun, you have a place to drive this thing?

Around the streets. Up here in barie where I live theres rarely anycops so I doubt it will be a problem and With my condition the worst they'll give me is a warning and to go home.

A 'Busa motor is going to be way too small. Id suggest big block chevy or maybe even a viper V10. You're going to need a lot of torque to haul your stupid *** around.

I was thinking if putting a Honda 125 in it. Nothing to big and expensive. Some people are saying to put a wippersnipper motor or watever. Those dont go to fast do they?
