streetbike noob with a 900
Whats up guys im kind of a noob to street bikes, But have a little experiance in dirtbikes. I raced motocross for many years and still ride dirtbikes now and then, i have a crf250r. But im here for my other bike, 95 cbr900rr. Im also a mechanic and love to build and tinker with anything i have so nothing ever stays completely stock for long haha, I got this bike about a year ago in a trade it just needed a clutch to drive but the plastic was beat to **** and wrapped in fur...yea fur! put the clutch in and the bike got put behind some of my other projects and im finnaly getting back into it now. just started working on swapping the tail for an k4/k5 gsxr 700 tail. and im in the process of repairing the rest of the fairing. it also has a stumble at higher rpms i noticed after riding it one time last year but that will wait to get sorted out until spring. anyways heres some pics!
when i got it:
currently:
really happy with this tail so far
And of course my other toy that takes me away from the bikes:
slammed with a v8, built it all myself and its a blast to drift around in!

My first vehicle was an 88 with the KA24 - I wish I had that truck back some days for a VQ35 swap. V8 swap wasn't ever on my radar back then though, lol

I would do either a KA24DE swap (from an S13 or S14 240sx) then turbo it, or do an SR20DET swap. You could also do a CA18DET swap; it's a little 1.8 I4 but it has an iron block, can rev north of 9K rpm and can hold quite a bit more power than it's 175 hp stock rating. Mate that with a 4:11 rear diff.

Why? That's a fairly wide engine, wider than even the VG30E that was offered in the V6 versions. They are a total PITA to work on as there is very little room with the V6. Though the VG30 is a great engine otherwise.

doesn't matter - right now I've got a 90 model ranger that is begging me for a 302/T5 swap. I can't bring home any more projects, according to the wife.
