as some of you know my vfr engine is shot !

will have my replacement engine arriving on wednesday which is fully gas flowed and is a total loss system , meaning i am going to transfer my generator across from my previous engine.

have also ordered a renthal chain and sprocket set.

will take some build photos as im doing this and will post on here!

any one have any other ideas as im doing this replacement that would be cool to do whilst im doing this !

haha yer just been on the price list , the mapping system seems really tempting !

the alternator kit is pricey but i need to know what difference it is going to make.... what charactoristics will it produce ?

Have a read through these i m sure theres some info in there
viewtopic.php?f=22&t=484
viewtopic.php?f=24&t=19958

The g-force kit you will see mentioned is how it all started, i dont think there available anymore hence rick oliver does his own kit.

I have the Rick O genny conversion, and it does make the bike rev much faster :grin:
It's pretty much as good as total loss. :peace:
