What motor should I use?

[Dram]

First off you all have probably answered this but what is the best motor to use in a mini sand rail?

I would like to build something identicle to this
But would a street bike engine work? Or 4wheler or baja 1600cc motor?

What's your recommendations for motor and if street bike how would you mount it?

TIA

I know people have put Yamaha R1 motors in Rhinos. They have also but Suzuki SV1000 motors in Rhinos.
Weller Racing and RPM Gearboxes

There are a lot of Hayabusa mini rails running around as well. tom pro design and i think king sand cars are the names of those.

There have also been numerous swaps with the arctic cat Z1 snowmobile motor and i think a Yamaha Apex snowmobile motor.

A company called Pace Offroad does some of those type swaps.

That should give you a good start on some research.
