Just bought an atc110. Motor isn't worth rebuilding or repairing for lack of parts. Can a Chinese 125cc or 140cc motor adapt? What about the head mount?

Remember, I am a newbie, go easy on me! lol

Thanks

First off. Welcome to the forum. :)

I am not familiar with the 110 myself or if someone has done it.

Sorry that I can't answer either. I'm also new and they haven't chewed me up yet so I think you'll be ok. Bunch of decent folks here. Welcome!

Ok, good. I hope someone comes with some knowledge. I don't see why I can't fab the bracket to marry the new motor. I understand it sits back more. Would need a new plate or something fab'd unless there is another way I am not seeing?

Someone asked this recently. I'm not the expert, but going from memory the answer is yes, you can make the Chinese engines fit into the 110 chassis. I think it's not done that much because the 110 frame is not really up to the task of keeping together with the added horsepower of a newer big bore. Someone is bound to check in soon for you I'm sure.

Sounds like 125cc is better than the 140cc then? I'm ok with that. I'm not going to be taking it to the trails, jumps or anything. Just around house, to mail box, neighbors house type of thing. To old for all that.

I will just have someone fab me the plate with mounting ears since the bolts don't line up from atc 110 bracket. We will create a new one. Sounds easy enough?

Dratv.com makes a engine mount. Never used one but know they have what you want.

That's for the Ct90 I think? This looks like it will mount right up excluding the front head mount. The ATC 110 has 3 motor mounts. If you look at pic I posted, I think I will have someone fab me a bracket to mount to new motor head.

It's a good start. Same bottom end as the 90. That's all I can offer. Piranha motors have a different head style. Remember its custom.

Is Piranha better? The Lifan is for another project of mine. I haven't purchased motor yet for this project.
