Motorized Engine
How do I turn a Lawnmower engine and a 10 speed bike into a motor-bike?
A while back I saw a guy who had actually done this;he was fueling up at a gas station.I imagine it's much the same as making a motorized go-cart but I don't know how to do that either.If you know of a starter site that would be awesome.Thanks!Joe
A regular lawnmower engine is going to be bulky as mention above, you may want to consider a Weedeater and you can buy a new weedeater for $80 and rob the new engine.
I remember when there were these Mini-Bikes, sort of a small motorcycle for kids and it used a Horizontal lawnmower engine. Many people would build their own with the help of a person with a welder.

I found some links, but, not great. I think looking at pictures and such will help give you ideas.

I want to make an electric using a small starter motor, but, I looking at Battery Bulk. I can try a Riding Lawnmower Battery, but, I not sure how long it go before needing a recharge.
I hope the answer above has some good links for you. Good luck and enjoy your project.
