Its only a 12 hour drive from me to collect. I hired a car hear a few weekends ago to drive to a football game in a neighbouring state to Ohio. Rental rate was $9/day. $9 PER DAY!!!!!!!!!!

In any case I'm sure they would freight in to Omaha for me.

Looks like I will place a bid.

Did you read the text JC, the topic is the ZX14 but they keep mentioning Suzuki...

"Kawasaki ZX-14 engine performance is incredible, offering awesome acceleration the instant you twist the throttle, providing performance you have to experience to truly appreciate. Its secret? Nothing short of Suzuki’s most sophisticated technology. Including digital electronic fuel injection for crisp, instantaneous throttle response. And a unique version of Suzuki Ram Air DirectTM (SRAD) induction, with pressurized air ducted into a large-capacity airbox and forced into the engine through straight, downdraft intake tracts"

What time frame are you working towards? We're fairly confident of June next year but that may slide (if we decide to stay on). That would be my only hesitation, how soon you want it. Happy for it to go in the container. I'm actually contemplating buying a wakeboard boat while here so may fill a 40ft container.

I've now read four or five build threads where guys have removed 1000cc bike motors and replaced them with a busa or zx14. They say its the torque that makes the difference.

Additionally, the peak power figures quoted rely on SRAD, which without reaching 120MPH+ will not function.

23,000 miles, that's too many I reckon. 40,000 thousand k's on a bike is alot of riding. Bear in mind also the last 100m or so of its life where probably reving hard and starved of oil (as it kart wheeled down the road).

Ah. My bro in law lives in London so we're good for stuff from the UK.
