My brother and I picked up a couple rollers and have started our builds. The plan is to put supercharged Hayabusa engines in them, upgrade the suspension and brakes and get them on the road (safely) before working on anything cosmetic.
We picked them up from Keith down in Nepoleon, OH and he recommended I document the build here. My brother is working now on the fab for the engine cradle and sourcing the transfer case to drive the rear axles. My job at present is to beef up the suspension and brakes to handle the planned 300+HP. Mine is the black 74 which will probably end up with steel GT flares. My brother's is the primed and glassed out 72. Let the fun begin! (If anyone has 5-lug / brake upgrade parts available, please PM me) Attached thumbnail(s) |

This from the guy who always wanted to do a 914 /honda goldwing conversion and was told on this site it was (hands down a dumb f☆☆kn idea) I love this place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) That is actually a great idea! The motor is shaft drive and it already has a reverse system using the starter. This was the Bike Engine Conversion I had always pictured... didnt the original 2L-6 make about that much power anyways? most of the fun with a fraction of the cost of a "correct" -6 |
