Default Yz80 motor in pred 90

Has anyone attempted to put an air cooled older yz-80 or other 2-stroke motor into a predator 90 chassis??? I remember the 1978 yz80 dirtbike I had as a kid would do 60 mph no problem, and had tons of power with a wicked midrange power band! I bet it would make a predator just haul!

LOL The scooter motors break their frames. Think what That would do.
I do think a TRX90 frame could handle it better.
This venture usually is done in a blaster or LT230 frame.

Sorry no. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
That project was 10 years ago.
I think if you do enough searching, there has been others that have more recently posted about this.

Thanks
I saw you are a specialist with the LT80.
Have you ever work on a Predator ?
