Hi group.
I am soon to be the proud owner of an old (haven't established the date yet) Roadmaster "Whizzer" frame w/springer-truss forks.
I'm currently collecting parts and pieces for it now.
I'm a broke .... and a tight wad, so the engine is going to be a toughie for me (besides, I'm not a stickler for "correctness" as i don't foresee me ever donating it to the local museum or such).
Does anyone here have any suggestions as to "other" engines that might fit/work well with this frame?
I have looked at the 2-stroke junk out there but they have never appealed to me, while a similar 4-stroke becomes unobtainable, at least for the time being (I do want electric and/or kick start).
Will any of the moped engines out there fit this?
Thanks for ideas and suggestions.
