Most successful motorcycle engine installs appear to be on lifted carts that can give the needed height clearances for the engine.
Be careful, have fun and post some pictures!!

yeah have seen them too. i know that the owner of the bike before me modified it and tried to lessen the overall size of the motor without sacrificing horsepower. right now as it sit in the bike the whole thing is maybe a lil taller than a kitchen chair but it is kinda long. i can weld and do frame work and a lift kit sounds like the way to go. will have to look some more and i promise pics :D
