BSHEE400 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 i've seen videos on youtube of R1 powered karts and other big bike engines in them but the kart ends up being the size of a small car when they are finished. i have a spare stock complete shee engine sitting at home getting dusty and was thinking about buying a kart chassis to mount it in what do you guys think? i bet it would be a blast to drive and wheelspin like a mother fucker anyone tried something like this before that might have some pearls of wisdom?? i also have a yzf 426 engine but i think the shee engine would be more of a laugh to drive!!

bansheeman1988 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 My buddy and i built one a couple years ago with a 440 fan cooled sled motor and the thing hauled some major ass. He did like 112 in the quarter mile and the thing would do cookies on dry pavement.... :happy: it was insane, so i built one myself also and put an old Suzuki TC305 twin in mine, basically a little smaller than a shee motor and had it as a shifter kart. that bitch was crazy and still is sittin my shed today. Im lookin to get rid of it eventually since i dont ride it that often, but hell yeah throw that shee motor in a little go kart frame and you'll be rippin it up! Quote
