Is BATMAN's GY6 mount the only one that raises the front engine for proper positioning? I didn't see any other GY6 mount seller mention it. The picture below is a GY6 with a fatty rear wheel properly centered. Probably exclusive by ATR (All That Ruckus). AFAIK he's not ready to sell a GY6+fatty compatible mount yet.  I few of my friends has ATR mount, and they are using shocks thats are about 245mm or smaller for the engine to sit horizontal. From what I was told if you wanted the front engine to sit higher than use longer shock. Also complete ATR fatty swap kits are for sell in the for sale thread.

The length of the shock doesn't have nearly as much to do with the angle of the engine as the mount does. Yes I agree with you, but the ATR gy6 mount is different compared to the other mounts in the market. Check out the how the ATR mount is designed, and you will see that the length of the shock does determine the angle of the engine.

can u give me the link to buy the ncy bolt on mount bluesmokeracing wrote: OK, its time to post pics of your engine mount setup, and get a list together of different mounting options for different engines(and how it has been done before!) Please note which engine it is, if there is a big variation of the engine(like long and short case GY6) and maybe what you think about the experience If it is up here already, please don't repost the same thing twice, especially commercially available mounts, we need a reference thread! Here is my first one, several generations later it eventually turned into the mounts that BATMAN sells(he raised the aluminum mount higher so the engine sits properly), this one is an adapter that bolts to a NCY stretch kit for a stock Ruckus, and bolts a long case GY6 engine into a little Ruckus with a stock Ruckus shock(using the NCY shock extension that comes in the extension kit)  installed, notice the front of the engine is lower than in in the BATMAN mounts, that was the big fix for the kit!
