Re: MY MOTORCYCLE PROJECT

well the KLX u can sorta figure out by the name that its a dirt bike .. ZX-14 .. or CBR1000RR sounds like a sport bike ... vulcan sounds like a harley kinda bike .. i guess thats just me . I dont really have i budjet , most weekends its like 7 bucks here 10 here kinda thing .... ive had zero luck finding an engine for less than 100 without a cracked block. and the nitrous can be done fro cheap really . the bottle is nothing more than a fire extinguisher bottle .. polish it and ur good to go and u can get those for free.. the only custom amchinging i see coming is the carb and gears im gonna need and i got a man that hooks me up at a machine shop. And as for time im in no rush to get it done .. I had it for a year before i touched it. as for space i got a HUGE walk in crawlspace so space isnt a problem. and no experience with NOS , but the motor is like the a mini version of the forn flat head V8 .. its a very simple engine. my current problem is exhaust stuff .. name a metal that can take that dosent melt witht he high EGT's and isnt heavy as hell. Im also not gonna be riding this bike very muh .. mmy cousin was in a motorcycle accident and got caought under the car and dragged 100 feet . sooo im amazed my mom let me keep the bike.
