what kind of engine u gonna put on this thing?

Hello and welcome to the forum, that dune buggy sounds like a pretty cool project to work on over the winter. Is this gonna be a custom project or a pre-built frame?

well im sold for this idea

so this thing would be riding on a cloud, would there be some suspension from the back wheel as well?

wow, that is a cool bike

jeez that is one beefy axle, also check amazon, they have good prices on axles there

It would be awesome if someone made on that could be attached to a predator 212

interesting... how much would one of these kits cost?

why not just try and get the 2 stroke going, there are very easy to work on, you might have to replace the spark plugs and possibly the carb but other than that it should be good. Is it stuck?

ever considered putting an 80cc engine on it?

You'll need a lathe, most of that generator shafts have really weird diameter sizes. also, you'll need to completely remove the crankshaft, and you'll need a pretty powerful saw to get the tapered end off. honestly if this thing isn't making a ton of power, I would just suggest getting a...

This stage 1 kit comes with the pod, adapter, and exhaust pipe https://www.gopowersports.com/stage-1-performance-kit-for-196cc-212cc-engines/

This engine should be waaay more power that a gy6 (and about as much) https://www.amazon.com/DuroMax-XP18HPE-Electric-Certified-Refurbished/dp/B071XVM71F

I should probably check the valves again or just get it to a propper mechanic because honestly I have no idea what I'm doing.

1. 440cc duromax The Duramax has freaking 18 horsepower completely stock and it cost just as much as a 420cc predator which only makes 13 hp! That is almost as much power as a stage 4 predator 212 but is half the price. People should really start using this engine more often...
