holy man alive!!! thats not good... you could do alot of damage to your bike and yourself... have you ever seen a 47cc engine bounce 6 inches off the ground?? I have... now try holding that sucker down... you wouldn't want that to hit something and do damage

If you ride it broken and the motor is not aligned, you will risk at the minimum a broken chain. Other complications are excessive sprocket and gear wear. There is also the possibility of your motor launching itself off your bike into your leg (which wouldn't tickle).

Find yourself a reputable welder and get the mount fixed up.
