dirtbike motors are prefered over honda clones/briggs/tecumseh motors for speed and performance. they're just expensive and hard to come by. they're also more complicated to hook up to a kart.

read through the forum. read LOTS.

Sure, all the time. Most of the time people use the whole bike for parts and not just the engine

Yes and I'd sell you one cheap! 02 yzf250 eng and all the fixings!
