a big street bikew engine is likely too not even fit in your frame, or tear it apart after it moves. The better idea is too get an xr 600 or 650 engine and try that, you will still have to strengthen your frame to make it work right.

Yeah, you could use a xr 600 engine or something like it. I would get an '87 cr 500 and use the engine in a 300. You would have to mount the radiators, and the kickstarter will interfere with the rear fender for sure. But you would have a light, compact powerplant with at least 50 horse.
