Hi All,
I'm seriously thinking about getting a V8 for the SR. If the price is doable, I think I'll be going for a 200 with an auto and will partly fund the project by selling the manual I6 bits from the SR. How much would a low kay T5 sell for? I'll also probably be selling my 2001 VFR800 (a mere 17,000 kms) as it's time for a change to an off road bike. It's in immaculate condition for its age, so will make someone very happy. If you know anyone who's in the market for a great sports tourer, let me know. I'd keep the LPG bits on the SR and get the V8 hooked up on the good old bbq fuel. The system is an Impco setup. Anyone know how hard it'd be to use the existing setup? The SR has a 3:7 diff and a 2.5 single Redback sports system. I'm hoping the diff ratio makes up for the reduced performance on LPG. Am I expecting too much? The exhaust will be okay for the V8 right? Should I do it? Your thoughts are appreciated. Also, I should add that I don't have the coin to fund the purchase of a dirt bike, and a newer V8 and LPG conversion, hence this option put before you all. LOL! GK
