Default any idea what size this motor is ?

I need a gy6 150 cc motor, this looks like one. I'm going to call the guy but I have a feeling he doesn't know what size it is.

This is the motor the GY6 was copied from- Likely this is a 110cc-125cc. Just for comparison I had a GY6 125cc that out ran a GY6 150cc

I'm thinking about getting it and fixing. Something else for the kids to tear up...hell I probably could get it for a 100 bucks. but! If it was a 150 I wonder how hard it would be to put in my carter buggy since its water cooled?

Ok I think I found the answer to my question, I'm pretty sure it's a Linhai Yamaha 257cc. http://www.curtisparts.com/scooter_type/260cc_Motor.jpg

I'm not sure that's a 250+- in that or in the picture. cylinder looks pretty small for it unless it has one heck of a stroke to the crank. I wouldn't go by posted pictures on sales sites. a lot of time they're just pasting whatever stock photo they have for just about everything. scrap value around here is about $50, just to give you a little negotiating ammo ... ;~)
