get an old chainsaw 45-50cc instead it'll be less expensive it repair and it will take the abuse

Ditto, get an old chainsaw engine, or if you can find a decent full crank weed eater engine that would work too.

They use those on Gas Scooter's (GoPeds)

I can tell just from looking:

22.5cc motor, RedMax Zenoah G23LH, dual ring (1.5mm), 32mm bore, 28mm stroke, single port head, 1.2HP.

Designed to be reliable, one channel exhaust relief port... side angle plug motor...

Can run a .700" spindle (.700 inches lol) fine.

i might have made a crude gas skateboard/ scooter for the hell of it, and all i needed to know is would it move me at any speed?and any idea of the rpm of this engine? and is 1hp a realistic figure? finally if the engine had a built in centrifugal clutch, would it be suitable?
