Go to Europe, buy a Gilera 180cc scooter, and ship it back in boxes. Reassemble, voila.

swap in a 150cc GY6. but that requires a lot of mounting fabrication.

there's always the inevitable "dude, swap in a dio!"

go classic, tried and true, swapp in a DIO and juice it up to 100cc or so, fully decked out you'll be able to compete in 1/8th mi no prob :thumbwink:

I think you meant to type AF16 aka the SA50 motor.

Or do like Sanjuro, take a leisurely trip to Japan, get a Dio on the black market, take completely apart, put it into your checked baggage and many hours later land in deepinthehearta, collect bags, go home and wave your magic wand and "Voila"! Super-fast.

I know all too well the "pay to play" game. I just want a sleeper thatll burn out in the box, ride a wheelie when I want it to and not sound like a CR500.

what's it take to run, say 8sec in the 1/8th?

I think Burnt_toast had the answer, and maybe he can confirm some realistic 1/8 mile times.

stroker crank ( 50,51,52.6) stroker bore(51,52,53,54,55) ,stroker pipe(scorpion,pg fatty,msp drag) ,big intake for 33mm carb, gears 9to1 or 8.5to1, all the aftermarket trans stuff. your looking at about 980 plus shipping on parts. you still have to cut the case to fit the crank and the cylinder. Oh and don't forget bearings and seal for the crank so another $60.Oh and jets for tunning so another $60. so your looking at $1100 plus shipping on parts alone.
