Just been given a 97 XJ 600. engine sounds veeeeeeeery nice too. the only problem is that to get it in to 1st gear you have to roll the bike back just a little bit and select 1st. The bloke that gave it to me was quoted £600 to fix it. I could probably get an engine for a couple of hundred squids but..........
Here is my thinking...
I have a CX 500 engine
+
I have a reliant axle
+
I have a bit of steel, pipe and box
+
put the lot together and trike it.
+
Minimal outlay,
=
loads and loads and loads of fun!
Any thoughts? Putting another engine in and riding it isn't really an option coz I've got my xv535 for that and I think the xj would scare the pants off me
. I wouldn't like to get nicked for that
When I started the engine I was scared
Regards
