Title: Anybody want to upgrade their engine?
Post by: fintip on January 28, 2013, 12:33:59 PM
Just found this... I feel like I'm a fool for passing it up, but I'd be a fool to spend all the money I just saved on this. I just don't know quite enough to be sure it's worth it, I guess.

If I had money to blow, I'd probably give swapping it in a try. Otherwise, at least selling it here. Hell, the new carbs alone are worth a few hundred dollars.  :wacko3:

Just remember to thank me when you get some extra kookaloo, whoever gets it.

Edit: While I'm at it, here's a supposedly rebuilt 1100 engine priced cheaply (guy obviously expects much less than the $500 he's posted it for). http://eastidaho.craigslist.org/mcy/3508572321.html (http://eastidaho.craigslist.org/mcy/3508572321.html)

Lots of stuff there. All I notice is the carbs look to be off a newer bike, TPS on the side of the carbs. Big buyer beware unless you have a real good hack as to whats what. Keep in mind they are used parts in a box with no guarantee.
