I bought a 48cc round head from Simpsonmotorbikes.com
Here's what I am doing with it right now. They are TOO MUCH FUN!!!!! I highly reccomend purchasing one. DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE BUYING!!! Check Motoredbike.com for some really good info on engine kits.

What about the 80cc kits that you see on ebay. Are they any good? They're $100 plus $90 for shipping

Rusty513,
I have had no personal experience with that particular kit. There are lots of people that have used that kit and others at Motoredbike.com. You will find all the info you need there.

No need for the suspension fork. They do make the ride much nicer though.
I think the engine weighs somewhere around 15 lbs.

Hi guys, sorry I haven't chimed in sooner, my comp is on the fritz right now. Thanks Dan for jumping in with the info. The 80cc was designed as a "truck" motor, they have around 3.5hp but does not rev as high as the 2hp 48cc. I personaly have tested 5 diffrent types of these engines and the 48cc roundhead tthat Dan has is the best one I've run. If your set on getting an 80 I would reccomend http://www.kingsmotorbikes.com/index.html he has been around for awhile and I've been told his engines tend to run a bit faster. For the 48, get it through http://www.simpsonmotorbikes.com/ . I would stay away from most of the e-bay sellers because you just might end up with crap...Kelly

Also, what 48cc kit were you talking about? there look to be a couple.
Heres the link to the roundhead http://www.simpsonmotorbikes.com/SkyHaw ... 20Kit.html . If you talk to Mike, tell him I sent you. RR, yes there are YT videos, jst search for motorized bikes and you should find then. They sound like souped up weed eaters although the roundhead seems to be a little quieter...Kelly
