Well guys I got another $100 bike. The photo isn't the bike I bought it's one I pulled off the net of a cherry example. Mine is rough but not as bad as the PW I bought. More later when I start to pull her apart. And yes I thought about putting the motor in a Mid as a matter of fact thats the major reason I even considered buying it.

a 2 smoker would be the easiest swap if you had the tools and parts to make the pipe

I am constantly mad with myself for letting you down brah. I love riding and I love hitting the track. When I looked at this bike all I did was glance at the motor to see how big it was and if it would fit in a Mid. I honestly didn't give a crap about the rest of the bike. I thought damn if I can make this work "S" will have someone to ride with all the time. It'll constantly try to kill me but who cares I'll be riding!

Swheels I put that thing in a Mid and it'll rip the frame in half. Although from what I've read the motor is soft until you hit the right part of the band then it'll tear your fillings out. What I will do it make mounts for a X15 motor using this motor and then find another on Ebay to use. Nothing on them is expensive anymore and if it doesn't work out I have a spare motor for the RM. I can see I'm at the point that any bike I get from now on I will keep. So now I have 3 bikes and one frame and no end in sight.
score.,and yes it will fit.Hey im telling u one thing dont bother try to put a 250cc in it.im sitting rite here banging my head trying to figure out how can i get this ktm250 to fit lol.the ktm250 fits it just u gotta make custom mounts in so little space.
The 125 will for show.

Well looks like I need to buy cases anyway rolleye0010 The stator side clutch is broke in two places and you can't bolt the stator cover on. Nope I didn't notice at all til I pulled the motor. They're both on the bottom. One bolt I would weld it up and drill and tap it but two I'll pay $100 for a used set and roll-out. I haven't split the cases so there's no telling what the crank and rod look like? Still not complaining it's a "Give Me Something To Do Project" so time is relative. And like the PW I can wait on EBay parts at a cheap price and build up as I get them. I'll throw up some hey look at this photo's soon.

The bike is torn down to the frame and I've started bead blasting parts. There are so many small parts are need to replace like nuts, bolts, brake shoes, and stator but thats ok this is a long term for me. Long term meaning at least until the end of the year but no longer.

The Nutty Professor

No I didn't give up just got burnt out working on something that was one big headache. I'm about to take the motor apart yet again and see whats up with it.

cool, you might wanna get a gasket set first
have you tried the motor with the stock head again? or is it that oil tube giving you issue
The Nutty Professor

Got the gaskets covered. The oil tube is giving me problems. I found a set of replacement hoses but I don't have the spare fundage to cover it. All my work now on my bikes is hard labor or parts on hand.
