Titan dune buggy with ZX6R motor

Bungeeguy · 09-03-2010, 10:09 AM

Here is what I have been working on for the past month. It's a Roketa Titan that originally had a 250 single in it. I pulled the stock motor and put a Kawasaki ZX6R motor in it.

OMG!! That does look sik as hell!!

You so have to post up results of a good fun run on that thing. Did you beef up the bars at all? What about the engine mounts? I would think that is gonna put out a hell of a lot more torque than you could get outta that 250.

I have not actually driven it yet. It is completely done minus the tumbler ignition. Long story but basically you cannot hotwire these motors and I was sent the wrong ignition last week. but should have it any day.
W/D I had to put in alot of bracing for the motor mounts and they "should" hold. I will definitely be trying to break as much stuff as possible to see if there are any weak points.
Here are a couple more pics of the motor.

DANG that is just so wicked looking...

So no rubber engine mounts? Might feel a lot of vibration through all them tubes. Not to be a buzz kill, hope I am wrong, but the easy fix would be rubber between the engine and mounts.?.?

It had to be a solid mount or it would have created to much flex for the gearbox and exhaust. I am not expecting any noticible vibration but I will let you know.

I would love to be there when you take it for a spin, I'll bring the video camera when you roost some dirt!!!!

im guessin that the driven gear box/cv axles/ spindles are gonna be a few points to watch. This is positively awesome! keep us in the loop
