So,I inherited a thoroughly mangled S3, with the ONLY part worth anything being the engine (don't ask me how THAT happened). I also have the possibility of hooking up with an XB roller that someone used for a chopper project. Can I install the engine in the XB frame? If so, are there any issues that need to be addressed?

You might want to work out a trade with Okimted, take a look:

The only thing is do you want injection or a carburetor!?
The rest is pretty doable i think!

NO!

Not without extensive machining and fabrication, and even then it will still be iffy....

Part out everything and buy a complete bike - tubers are still going cheap!
