i know i know.. tthis is sttupid.. and probably impossible... but god damn i wanna put an r6 motor in my fzr250.. i really dont think it would fit... although they both do have the same sort of deltabox frame.. which gives me hope.. im just wondering... does anyone out there reckon it could be done? i know its probly impossible or really hard to do.. but ****.. sombody give me some hope. Comeon people.. help the revelation here
R6 engine width is around 296mm, I think a little wide for the fzr. The FZR400, from previous posts fits, but very snuggly. But I really dont think the tyres, chain assembly on the fizzer will take the power (or the frame). Why not try a FZR250 engine in a R6? Or better still just buy an R6.
As little as i want to admit it, there's a point at which modifying a car/bike becomes pointless. Especially when your in it for the same reason i am - performance per dollar (and fun per dollar). As BigLez suggested, your better off just buying an R6 and being done with it. I've got some quirky idea's about things i'd like to do to my FZR1000 but in the end it's just not worth me doing them! 1040 kit and a turbo sounds like alot of fun but by the time i'd spent that money or working it up, i could've just bought a newer R1 or similar and got about the same performance. (Please note i didn't say same power, i said performance) Enjoy your FZR250 for all it's imperfections because one day you'll look back and say 'damn i enjoyed that bike!' <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s --> <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cool.gif" alt="" title="Cool" /><!-- s -->
Yah, but it would be hella cool to see it done. Not for power or performance or anything like that. Just as a crazy project. Like the orange bazookas we made as kids. Wow I made it sound like past tense.. I'm still making those damn things! <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> Oh, and ashlee simpson and hillary duff. Nice combination man. Nice.
I'm doing that now. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s --> (Though I wouldn't trade my current steed for it - I want both)
Same here. Every time i do a run through the twisties im in awe of the power my new beast puts out, but the sheer pleasure of cranking it over so far you can see the ashphalt blur out the corner of your eye, then flicking it to the other side and doing the same just isnt there on a heavier bike.
It is, but it just takes so much longer to get there that it is not as exciting. There is a lot of effort required to manhandle a 500 lb bike from full lean to full lean.
