    Hi. Looking at doing a gilera conversion to my rox but not too sure how I'd go about it. A few mates of mine that build 183 runners have said just file down the aerox mounts slightly and get a machined block for the aerox shock but it looks like the cylinder head on the engine would hit on the bars that go across the frame? Has anyone done this type of conversion this way or will I have to Weald a runner engine mount to a aerox frame (cutting the aerox frame etc) wiring and cooling etc is no problem, I know how to do that, it just getting the engine into the bike
