I'm waking up this thread again!!! Waiting on parts for the Black Yerfdog. I'm going to disappoint most of you though. I pulled the 600cc out and dropped a "FREE" '78 Honda CB400A in it to see if it fits. By the way the "A" means automatic (2 speed). A neighbor had this since it was new and only rode it for a year (2,512 miles), put it under a tarp and forgot about it. While helping him clean up his property he mentioned it to me and when we uncovered it - completely rusted and oxidized-- too far gone to restore so he donated it to me since he's well aware of my addicition!!!! I'll get some pics tomorrow after I fab a few mounts. It's a great solution for me as the Polaris tranny (rated for 50hp) was always going to worry me. This engine is air-cooled & only 25-27hp. I'm back to almost $0. dollars for this project again.
