CBR engine swap
Sure, can be done, you’ll need:
- Blackbird engine
- Blackbird harness and all sensors
- Blackbird carbs
- Blackbird airbox & filter
- Blackbird intake ducts
- Blackbird CDI box
- Blackbird dash
- Blackbird swingarm, F3 swingarm will be turned to metal pretzel by extra power
- cut & weld frame to hold swingarm & engine. It’s about 2” wider than F3 engine and doesn’t just hang from frame like F3. It’s firmly bolted to frame as stressed member. So you’ll have to fabricate and weld engine mounts in addition to widening frame. Also need to reinforce and stiffen frame to deal with higher weight and power
