be careful, dirt bike engines are designed for dirt bikes. The cranks are not as strong as a atv motor is. People who put dirtbike engines in atv are usally aware of lots of maintance. Plus I've built a couple custom atv's and they are by no means cheaper!! They require lots of thought and work. Find a cheap, atv and fix it up. If you wait and have some money put back you can always pick up a good buy. you just have to be ready at all times and ask around...
