You should get more than 100.......maybe even 200.
I am assuming you are looking at the 52.6mmm stroke / 54mm bore = 120cc? That is not plug and play stuff and will require some case work to make it fit.
The "parts" available for that motor platform are not usually the best quality.

Id be buying a complete bike with the 120 motor, but yeah, ive talked to a few people and i dont get the impression i could ride it as a fun toy semi regularly |

Matt I dunno, maybe going and ripping around for an hour or so maybe 3 days a week Okay, all kidding aside, I think for that kind of use with any semblance of reliability the 120 would have to be absolutely meticulously built and more importantly, tuned. Not sure I'd trust a prebuilt one personally, but hey, if the price is right and you're willing to assume the risk... Matt |

Itd be in a Honda Dio Baja, and he wants 3k. Its not overpriced by any means for the bike and motor, but its just comparatively high |

Full disclosure: We don't sell parts to build a 120, so I really don't know... but IIRC at 3k you're up into Polini Big Evo for Minarelli dollars, which i suspect would be a substantially more powerful build. Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Matt |

Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Matt Youre not wrong, but the Baja itself is 2500. For an extra 500 hed throw the stroker in. He sent me pics of the motor being put together and it actually looks pretty good. Do i bite the forbidden fruit or be safe and get a Zuma with a built 70? 😂 |

Dont buy it!Those 120 parts are poorly built and the engine cases are very thin after the machine work,,whole lot better choices out there...  |

Matt The only thing about the zuma is that if its not fast enough, its $1000 to put a stroker crank in it to have it sent off |
