i dont know how well that motor would do in mx, its fairly heavy and its built for high speed racing such as desert racing and seems to overheat easily when its used for lower speed/high rpm racing such as xc, might work alright for gnc;s but i would say there are better motors for something like supercross

Several people have put that motor in a quad frame including a couple people that work for the honda motor corp.

Hmmm, the engine seems to fit in there pretty damn good. I can definitely see that being a production bike.

ralph,,,if your knee or shin hit that sharp fin sticking out while you were riding you would be hurting....I think it may need to be redseigned?
