Hey guys, this is Grant from Alabama. I know, I know, *insert redneck joke here.* [sm=itsok.gif]
Now, the reason I say I'm not your ordinary noob, is I don't own a CBR and don't plan on buying a complete bike. [sm=guilty.gif]However, I DO plan on buying a CBR engine. You see, I'm building a bec (bike engined car) for drag racing mostly, but for playin' around with whenever I wanna have a little fun. [sm=gears.gif]The reason I come here is to hopefully find out a little info on the motor in which I plan to use, and maybe some suggestions on milking out some more ponies from it. Don't, however, think I'm stealing the motor out of a road-worthy bike. The motor I'm more than likely going to get was taken from a wrecked bike, so no hi-jacking here.

 

Well this is definetly a first. Welcome to the forums though. You should find all the information/help you need here.

 

Ehh, I like a good challenge. haha, Thanks for the welcome man!

 

Welcome anyways.......[sm=vader1.gif]

Motor you are probably going to want to use would be a CBR1kRR circa 2004+

OR

a CBR1100XX. Probably will get the most ponies out of this one, however, kinda hard to find I would think.
A CBR929/954 motor would probably be your best bet for a search.
Good luck!!

 

Okay, if no one else will say it, I will. Why not use the busa motor?

 

lol, I love how my introduction thread gets more response than the thread I made on this topic in the CBR1000 section. haha, anyways...The Busa motor is too expensive for me right now, considering I'm trying to keep this thing on a budget. It came down to the zrx1200r or the cbr1000rr for about the same price. I explained a lot in my other post, might wanna read that. It's in the cbr1000 section, "'05 CBR1000RR Specs and Info." Thanks for the responses guys.
