I've got a Honda CBR1000RR engine. I had a '98 Kawazaki ZX-6R engine that I was going to swap in, but figured since I was gonna go that route, I might as well go big. I sold the ZX-6 and bought the RR. The original project that I started was stolen. I built a complete frame from scratch, had it all together except the rear suspension & drive. Now that it got stolen, I'm gonna cheat and buy a complete frame, and just put the motor in. You can't believe how many hours go into fabbing suspension parts & pieces. I don't have the time to do it all over again-nor the money. It's cheaper to buy a roller & stab the motor than it is to build one from scratch. The tools alone cost me $3K so far.
Think I found what I'm looking for.. Found an 800CC buggy for sale that appears to have everything I am looking for already on it. We'll see how it goes.
I'll also check out SE CL as you mentioned. Thanks for the lead!
