No.

Mounts are in specific places for different engines/frames, fitting a different engine requires moving/adding mounts by welding them to the frame or fabricating parts to connect different mounting points.

It'll be a PITA, get an engine that will fit without modification.

yes that will fit, it is a hi-per 2 engine, the gileras also use this engine as well piaggios, how old are you? if you are 17 you can look into buying a 125 engine from a typhoon/runner etc... they also bolt straight in but require the loom to be chopped up a bit.

You are willing to pay £160 for a used (probably abused) 2 stroke ped engine Shocked

From the other thread, someone drove into the back of him and the impact has broken the mounts off the engine.

All the best

It wouldn't surprise me. Hence my feeling the bike is probably not financially worthwhile repairing.

All the best

I would consider your bike a Cat C... which would obviously need a check then an MOT... Just give it to the insurers, get full pay out... its going to cost you money.. might as well get shot of it now.
