Has anyone seen this project yet? Apparently this first version uses an Aprillia engine. He's currently working to fit a TL engine instead.

That is neat! I can't imagine how big if a headache I'd get trying to do that but I admire the guys ability/detirmination |

Nice bit of work. I wonder where the weight came in. I assume the isolation mounts have been done away with. I also assume the donor bike didn't have the swing arm attached to the engine. No doubt there were many details that had to be worked out. |

Jeez, all that work to build a home made 1125R? I admire the engineering involved but have to ask WHY BOTHER? Just go and buy one if you want one. One thing he seems to have forgotten to upgrade is the brakes! |

Have to agree with Trojan, and then still to consider defiling it with a riceburner motor, as good as the TL may be! |
