V12 cbr
Just been on the VMax forum site and there is a utube vid of a CBX with conjoined motor in the form of a V12 sounds AWESOME some people have the time and inclination and I guess inspiration to do some really amazing things when it comes to engineering.
A couple of years ago a sprint car racer here in NZ built a 2 litre V8 for his flat track sprint car using two ZXR1000 barrel and top end assemblies on a custom crankcase. Made great horsepower and cleaned up the local circuit, took it to the good ole US of A where it ran real competitive so much so that they outlawed it cos it wasnt based on a dinosaur as their motors were so he was not able to race.
Sorry that I am a luddite orI would be able to put up a link so you could see the V12 and hear it running.Maybe someone a bit more capable would be so kind to do that.

A bit like this thing. The Cardrona Race to the Sky used to happen just up the road from where I live. Outrageous overpowered 4wds, rally cars, and bikes of all description.
So your 1000cc Gixxer powered quad bike isn't quite fast enough? Lets smack a turbo on it, that should do the trick.
