An envelope about 2 feet wide by 3 feet long by 2 feet tall should cover most anything including your drive system. That's the approximate width and hieght of my Hayabusa. It is about 20 inches deep without header.

Dump it.

Do you have $180 to $200 for some plans that will get you on the right track to a really good car rather than a big azz golf cart? Good plans won't cost more than that!

Buy plans! Worth the money. Want cheap plans? worth the money . . .

Wow nice bike to tear apart. Might look for a downed/damaged one to trade that up for that has even more power?
