hey guys i was at school today and i saw a weired lookin contraption i asked my teacher what it was and he told me he was building a BSR and a few kids were helping him but they lost interest so me and a m8 told him that we will finish it of it is running on 2 electric wheelchair enigines. now to my question... after seeing this i diceided to jump on the net n do some research i am now going to build my own and was going to make on electric one but then rememberd i have an old 150cc 4stroke engine on a go-kart me n the old man made years ago and was wondering if u guys think this engine would b ok or is it 2 big and heavy???

I think it´s amazing. You will like it very much. I just put one on my go kart and I really think that it accelerates very fast but has very low end speed. I was running a 40 tooth sprocket in the back and the standard 12 in the front. You could go smaller and be awesome.

Most people here will run engines that have lower HP´s but you can never have too much (theres one guy that made one out with a 450cc).

Just my .02

GOod luck!

Hey Mulisha

I am building a BSR with a 125cc engine and I am just about done with it. You will be happy with the 150cc engine just be careful until you get the feel for it.

Click on the link below for the thread on my 125cc build. I have some cool photos you can check out. I made custom engine mounts that turned out great.
