Its a 250cc moped engine..

The diff is seperate from the vario drive so I'm either going to build a new input shaft with a sprocket and bearing carrier or I'll buy a sealed diff and build a carrier.

2001 R1 Lump.. I chose the 600 so atleast it will be driveable

even with that it will be around 300bhp / tonne.. With the R1 it will be closer to 450! mental!

What sort of look would that be?

'Look at that clown who's just went past me in some scaffolding with wheels'?

I would imagine the porsche would also be faster, with its wider "road" tyres.

It's got it's place obviously, I'd love one, I don't think anybody driving any car would really care that it passed them though.

I have built a few buggys and quads with bike engines simple to do once you get your head around it.
Factor in adjustment for chain stretch as it happens alot, also make sure your cogs are right sized aswell as 100% inline with joining cog.

This is my road legal Gas Gas Wild HP with a Triumph Daytona 650cc superbike engine 115bhp Quad weights around 175kg = 667bhp Per Ton and trust me you do not need anymore otherwise your going to loose the fun factor more for the fear factor.
Only problems i have is never time to use it

i built her 2 years ago and if i have used her 20times at the most

If you need any advice feel free to ask
