When you install a Triumph engine in a Norton, you get a Triton. When YamaGeek put a lifan in his 68 Yamaha he called it his Lifanhaha. So it makes sense that when you drop a Honda engine into my 68 Yamaha, you get a Hondaha. This started out as a scrap yard 1968 Yamaha YG5-T. So far i've bought a 70cc Honda C70 motor for it. As well as ordered steel for the new motor mounts, all new electrical and brake components.
Hi Dixon. I'll keep an eye on this one. One thing off the bat, the starter is going to complicate the upper engine mount.
I'd noticed that the starter motor was in the way. Im just going to make a delete plate for it, make this kick start only. It's now all torn down. I've found a few more issues, thankfully nothing big. I'll post some pics after it's a roller again.
That's cool man. Side note; if you had an Enfield engine to stuff into it you could call it a Royal Enamaha.
Well yeah, *if* you could get that big, heavy Indian lump to actually shoehorn in place of the old 80cc engine. There's not a lot of length room between the back of the engine mount and the front wheel, pretty short wheelbase altogether. My 100 cc Lifan was marginal with the stock front fender. I seriously doubt a Lifan 140cc or other big cylindered engine would fit even with a Preston Petty high mount MX fender.
