Wanted - SV650 Engine

[Stocky]

Thinking of fitting a SV650 engine to a RGV250.

Anyone knwo where I can get a crashed SV650 or a complete engine.

The later injected one (complete with wiring harnes and ECU etc) would be ideal but carby one is ok

Thanks

I have put an honda XL600 into an rgv chassis and there is not very much room left, it is a tight fit, don't know how much bigger the sv650 is, hope that you get it worked out it would be an awsome bike if you make it fit.



keep us posted with the progress that you are making.

Davo's got a real hot one - complete, less the sump plug. :D

[03gixxerpilot]

Davos might be the best solution

[fimpBIKES]

still would need all the extra bits though,
might be better to pick up a crashed one with a cracked frame etc

[03gixxerpilot]

yer might do but if it don't fit then you got to do sumit wit it.

[fimpBIKES]

Along the same lines of fitting a completely different engine,
Little clip in Febs "Performance Bikes" magazine,

TZR125, UK spec bike, fully faired, learner legal,
fairly small in size and normaly about 12 bhp....
.... Fitted with a Honda CR500 Moto-X engine !!
How much fun would that be !!

I remember watching the SOS racing (Sound-of-Singles)
Most of them seemed to be old Moto-GP / TZ / RG type frames
fitted with big Dirtbike 4-strokes, DR800, XL600, Rotax, Huskys etc.
Looked and sounded bloody good fun too.

fuck you Davo ... I'm tryin ta keep that one quiet ... as I want it..... ;)


I think it'll go for too much tho as we have a couple of guys up here that have blown their motors up...

[fimpBIKES]

grrr

sounds like it needs a rebuild though, expect to need to regrind etc the crank.....

[ozkat]

Stevo, if you bid and win let me know as i can get it picked up for you, Clives mate may be able to get it from Bris to Townsville

ummm hello tiger,the auction is in Townsville,be a shame to send it to Brisbane only to send it back to Townsville again.Goes under the hammer this thursday,viewing from tommorow onwards.Sorry Stevo,was just tryin to help out a man in need,and who better to ask than the "GURU".Not many bikes for auction up there but at least you guys are getting sumthing.

[ozkat]

Davo the SV 650 engine is in Lismore thats what i was talkin about.

Ohhh yeah, 1000 appologies.I think Sprocket is in Lismore from memory.Maybe he's sellin it?

[stevo]

I'm lookin at the whole bike as I want to stand it back up... but as I said I think it'll go for too much...

There's about 15 going under the hammer that day... so ya never know....

I think the "Island Cruiser" is more your style Stevo,i can put a bid on it tommorow for ya if you like it,:D
