I have been trying to ell my atc 110 for a while with no luck so I traded it for a Brand NEW YX 140cc engine with carb and everything. Manual clutch. Rated at supposedly 11 hp at the wheels.

I am trying to figure out what bike to put it on though.

-1 st bike 83 atc 70 that has all new bearing but needs plastic and reassembled. But the engine does run good. I also have pro taper Raised bars for it.

-The second bike I have is an atc90 on a Joker frame.. So far this engine hasn't gotten spark except for just one time, plus I need a carb for it. I have all new bearings for the complete bike in bag still.
300ex rear hubs and all brand new tires. Basically I have everything for this bike except for a decent engine that I know of.

It would real fun on the 70 but then my son can't ride it. On the 90 frame it should be fan all around for me. I am 5'11" about 190 lbs.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

IT will be a direct bolt in for the ATC70 ,, carb manifold will be an issue,, it won't just bolt it the 90 ,, it will take a little work and you won't have a head stay mount,,

Making the front head stay mount will not be an issue to make . Already have an idea for that.. Trying to figure out which would make the best combination.

Well, you could buy another 70.....You know there is talk of the east coast 70 fest coming up? Save the 90. I believe there is an engine cradle from DR. ATV to help bolt the smaller engine into the 90 frame if you wanted. I think this is what edog did on his 90 frame. And the smaller engine is light enough that you don't really need to use the front engine mounts. I mean they never even used front engine mounts on the 70 frames and they are just as frail as a 90 frame.

I don't need another bike in the garage.. Thanks for the thought.

I already have the Dr ATV bracket since it came with the engine I got.
