Hi Barry.
None that i know of.
Have you had a look for the engine from a C50LAC or C50LAE as these are full auto engines and if you want a bigger one the engine from the 12v CF70 is the same. Some of the pitbike engines used in some quads are also full auto and think some are 110cc.

hi steve

a while ago i looked into the full auto pitbike type engines but from what i could find out they were not that good

but would like to be told better

she has a 50cc honda scooter very old that we use up in the hills but the bigger scooters just go so much better


a 125cc would be nice
