6.5hp lawn boy

[Drummining1monkey]

I just came across this 6.5hp lawnboy on craigslist right by me. http://longisland.craigslist.org/grd/1828897381.html. How could with this motor be for a minibike? I have seen several on here on carts but haven't seen any on a mini-bike. Is the motor as large as a normal 4 stroke lawnmower engine is? $30 seems pretty good might even be able to get him to go a little lower if it would work on a mini bike well.

thanks for any help

It would do great... just make a angled bracket for it and then make a intake to rotate the carburetor so the bowl faces down...

$30 is a pretty good price for one of them, you'l have to make mount to mount the engine in the correct position, the shaft needs machining or a shim to take a clutch and the carb will need to be rotated.
