What engine is this, Minarelli?

[thach2264]

seller don’t know but said it came from an ATV that’s 90cc. Can this be a direct swap into a Genuine Buddy 50cc? I know that Ive to swap the transmission and gearing from the 50 to the 90.  I believe this is a short case. And is this a real Minarelli or a Chinese clone? Thanks

Love those 90cc atv motors. I'm rusty at this. The true short case motors like Polaris don't have a mount for the rear brake cable. You have to make one. The adly motors have a short case transmission with a really long belt to make a long case. The 3 adly motors i have all have the brake cable mount

Love that thread. Just read it again!

I'd guess it's a clone. Looks like a nice case match. The adly were long case with a short case transmission and longer belt. They used a different side cover. The last complete one I bought i paid $150 shipped but that was years ago. Depending on the motor the bore and stroke varies. I think 42 to 45mm stroke and 50 to 54 bore. Good street motors

Make for quite the stout build, that thread from an earlier comment is a fantastic jump to get the direction of building it in the right direction. I have two, one that was ridiculously chrome plated for some reason so it is probably going to just stay sitting on the island of lost engines shelf
