| SP2 Frame but no engine? How can I,,,, Does anyone know whether or not a SV1000S (Suzuki) engine can be put into a SP2 frame? I wonder about that?

I'd probably try and find a RC motor to save myself the hassle. |

| Re: SP2 Frame but no engine? How can I,,,, RC51 is the best looking bike I have ever known or seen...Just look at it standing or coming rom a distance... It's a pure race bike design..
I love its sound and power from 3000rpm....I will get a RC51 engine... Hell with SV1000..
"RC51 is a legend"
Japanese should make it again...

I can send you one if you want....but you have to wait until I get an other one again...

| Re: SP2 Frame but no engine? How can I,,,, Don;t put SP2 down....
My buddy SP2 constanly beats Ducatis, Inline fours (1000cc) in my area (acceleration)... My buddy change the compression (12.6) + few things on the bike. His SP2 goes easy 0-60 2.5 sec....
He beat 4 different Hayabusas (8 times....). We check the acceleration time with police speed/time meter...
So far my buddied SP2 is unbeatable....(with higher comression and little reduced weight)
Beleive me; RC51 is good...
You only need to make few changes on it...and you are ready to beat all bikes.
That;s why I changed my Kawasaki Ninja 2001 to a SP2....
