Cool :cheer: I blast around on this :woohoo:


Sweet, Harris Magnum?? Ive got a Spondon for the few summer months we have. Cant beat a well though out special.


A friend of mine is in the middle of putting a hyabusa turbo into a spondon frame. Should be interesting to say the least:p


Sounds good to me :woohoo: I had thought about fitting one in my frame but it don't fit :(, also considered a GSXR 1000 lump but that would be a nightmare as well due to the angle of the head :angry:. I was looking for a replacement for my Gixer 1100 motor which was bored out to 1216cc, and fed by a set of Mikuni flatslides. But in the end I got a low milage Gixer 1100m lump. Not gonna mess with this one though, keeping it std for reliability :)


Is that the early 1100 watercooled model? Sounds a nice motor. This guys done some rele good conversions i know he done a 900 bladelump into a hornet a few years back and won abit in shows withit. Im more a 4 wheel fella myself:p


No mate its a late oil cooled GSXR 11 motor I don't like the water cooled engines the are a lot heavier. To be honest I like modding, building things in general. I am looking forward to trying my Jimny on the rough stuff. I now have a couple of bridle straps and a couple of 5 metre straps. I still have to fit the front recovery points and I am ready. My only concern is I don't have any underbody protection as yet. Do you think this will be a problem?

I know the one. Them straps are great. I went on my first pay and play this weekend it was amazing what the jimny can do just stay out of the deep ruts. I ripped a radius guard in bits and took a fair knock to the transfer guard but i was driving her hard. Its judt piece of mind

What ir used to look like, its now going through another transformation! It had a nitrous'd zx10r engine. Nitrous is off now ive grown up. On a bike that has a rider without the skill to ride it to its limits, does not need nitrous!

Very nice B) I know what you mean that's why my new motor is staying standard. My bike picture is out of date too it now has an MV seat unit and a different can plus a few other bits. You know what it's like, just can't leave it alone :silly:
