[QUOTE="kirrbby, post: 174517, member: 3972"] Your 108 is probably worth $4-500 as it sits, with carb, to a random stranger in need. It's worth the price of the parts to you...maybe 750-850. It's worth a million dollars when you need a good engine ASAP. If you tear it apart and rebuild it, you will be left with a used crank, cylinder, and maybe a head...200-250.?? maybe. If you rob the stator, clutch and primary gears, and both side covers, for your new motor, the 108 can be put back together for only the price of those parts...and it will run just the same as when you last ran it. That may be the good happy medium. Then the only Xtra money you spend is for the cases, trans, and kickstart shaft...Thats all! 200 bucks Maybe a $40 oil pump too. Everything else needs to be bought and built either way. I just hate the thought of tearing apart a perfectly great running engine to save a few hundred dollars. I think your 124cc engine needs to be built with a 124cc specific head and carburetor...and that is the last best reason to keep your 108cc motor on the shelf. If you want the best...a cruiser...you might want to consider a Honda NICE. Smooth solid 60-65mph power. In my mind, the NICE 110 would be a very good...equalish match to a Grom . If you want best bang, big power, with a GOOD rep, Daytona Anima 190. There are OTHER 190's, but the Anima seems to be the one with a solid reputation...Zongshen 190 kinda sounds promising too. As I so often say...a LOT of my opinions are based solely on what I've read or somehow know. The guys with real experience...have real experience. Take my opinions for what they're worth. You CAN'T hurt my feelings. [/QUOTE]
