I really wouldn't bother. The motor is designed to cant upwards, and the Gen 2 frame will want it to point down. The motor is much narrower, so you will need some funky peddle arms to miss the frame and swing arm, the Gen 4 motor has a large chainwheel and aligning that given the width of the motor won't be fun, and above all, it would look funny :ROFLMAO: I have plonked one in an upside down frame for you, see pics.

ive heard it is narrow but not 100% sure how much. its the extra battery im thinking off and the lack of resistance when you get to that magic 16mph.

i take it the motor there is gen 4. dose look like it could fit some way. depend on the frame i guess.
 
They use completely different mounting systems etc - you would have to do some serious fabrication to get it to work, and even then it might not put to tolerances etc.
 
Extra battery? Just order an eBooz extender.
 
ive looked for a bosch extra battery and battery extender or addon not heard on a ebooz extender
