how do i stretch my gy6 50 but not do the 150 swap Make an extended motor mount is one way. Like this. Here's a 50 with a 6inch extension.

get a long case 788 motor for it.....and a 12" wheel.
this will give it the extended look...but use the standard motor mount.

Kinda pricey that way, but it will work.

good point i paid $220 for the 788 motor and i think 60 for the wheel...and its still a 39mm bore. an extended mount would be much cheaper.

It's inclined forward so far it's about to hit and much more of an angle would render it useless. Mines iffy. Easiest way would be to move the upper mount rearward in order to alleviate the problem. Another thing is that extending it a lot more than 6 inches might require a different design. My opinion is that 11 inches longer than the normal length might not be very strong or safe. Your going to be putting a lot of stress on that front pivot bolt. I think if it were me I would use some kind of weld on A frame extension or an entire custom frame. 6 inches seem to work out ok. Here's what it looks like before I deleted the rear body panels.
