You could always get a 1k bike and throw 600 fairings on it...

 

[8D]now that would be a sleeper

 

I thought about it in the past, how to make a newish 1000cc swap into an old600 frame. Main reason was to have 1K power with 600cc insurance premiums.

A friend of mine put a 5.9 Cummins Diesel in his old Chevy Z71, hard to call it a sleeper though as it is loud as hell and exhales smoke like Patty & Selma in a bowling alley.

 

The idea was getting my stock CBR600F4I in a way that would scare all those cool 1000cc's in the road. Just an idea. Some people get kind of offensive when somebody comes up with such ideas however I've seen people doing cool and also crazy things. I know this guy overseas (Panama)that had a Porshe engine in a old beetle, It went like bad news! I heard about people triyng to humiliate him in a red lightand after all, you know the rest.

 

Northern read my mind. but a 1k, strip the stickers, modify an F4i sticker kit to fit... kinda sleeper i guess.

hell, if you have the money and the ingenuity to do it, more power to you! i love to see crazy stuff like that. but its not gonna be easy

 

Anything is possible... this guy is putting a CRF450 engine in a Honda Ruckus: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread/2297467

 

^ Wow, some people have way more time on their hands that I do!

 

This is the coolest thing I ever seen! Thanks. You see, this is what I'm talking about. This guy had a vision and also the skills. I don't have such skills yet but nobody born Doctors. Everybody can learn. Thanks again.

 

that lil thing is kewl. But its more time n money than I would spend on it. Must be nice to have $$ to burn.

 

Hi,
As I can see - noone did mention the fact of calculation:
did you ever wonder why aren't the factories putting the different engine sizes (125, 250, 600, 100...) into the same frame, forks & swing arms, breaks...?
All this stuff are calculated to handle certain amount of power. If you want to switch the engine, then you should also do the same with this parts as well.
So - I second the opinion to put a "600ccm" fairings on a "1000ccm"
Regards,
Popeye
