  1. Just a after thought, people said all kinds of s*** about me putting a 350 small block in a Chevy Vega. A 383 stroker into a mini truck. Or a Mazda rotary Turbo II into a Datsun 510. None of them did anything particularly well except go fast... lol 😄 but dear God were they fun. I caught all kinds of grief for those conversions from some folks. Dammbed the torpedos...To hell with the naysayers...😆 Do what you want. Those three vehicles to this day are my favorites of ( all time) they put a smile on my face more than any other cars I've ever owned...engine conversions are about as American as apple pie on the 4th of July.

  2. Whatever an R1 motor ain't my thing either... but to each their own regardless of whether we agree or not he's got some good points he can drive it forever and do an oil change that's it he won't have to do anything on the motor. Rear Sprockets may be a issue...lol😃 I've seen plenty of GSXR 600 & 1000 swaps and a couple turbos and let me tell you they flat-out Kik f***ing ass speed-wise... Black 421 is fast enough for me I would never ride one of those things that scare the f*** out of way too much power for the Dirt... as a matter of fact I would challenge just about anybody outside of a professional red bull MX rider to r use my 421 Banshee or bigger on a dirt track or desert race to its ability..... If I saw an ad by the man of beer. Let's be real, most folks doing this don't give a too much of a rat's ass about handling.... just saying. He's explained his reasons and they're perfectly acceptable he just wants something to sit on twist the throttle and go fast in a straight line and not worry about his motor I know exactly where he's coming from nobody likes tinkering on s*** and for some people two Strokes just ain't a good fit.. I've been around two strokes since 1977 and I have had 20 different mostly midified 2 Strokes they can be and are finicky when modified or raced, people whom say they're not .....sent telling it like it is. When their stock in my opinion they're bulletproof ...but I have been through about six RZ350/ Yamaha RD400s and Kawi Triple motors that beg to differ when modified and raced...lol Seizures are equally as common from novices to veteran racers....lol🙄😀 I know one thing for sure that thing would leave my 421 gasping for breath and left a 75ft rooster tail in my face... lol The guy ain't after the fastest drag bike he just wants something that fast then that'll do the ticket all right. one thing we all know there is always something faster out there... always. Every old man meets up with a youngster sooner or later. Not my thing but it sure is a lot of fun may be limited but it's fun 👍
