Wouldn't even put the Yamaha motor in the honda. I'd get a Raptor frame. You have the weight and the strength to support it. This topic comes up every other week. If your interested in seeing what it looks CLICK HERE

Even if it's real, it would be unrideable.

The DS frame could also handle a bigger motor. That or a Quadzilla. I don't think it would be a good idea with any other frame.

I think this topic was covered last week.

i think it is real b/c you can like see the swing arm and the front stering shocks and so fourth and the handle bars look like the been raised so you could turn more, as for riding it maybe in a straight line and around small curves but it would prob be in possible to ride like a regular bike

I want to ride this Banshee

This would be fun but a back breaker too

This ones real

Oh BTW Big BEn

Even if it's real, it would be unrideable.
The last linkI posted was captioned.

Here are some PICS of a 1999 blaster with 1999 Yamaha R6 motor, plastics, and all electronics. I have a shop in Stamford CT called Innovative Cycle Designs (203)-359-8030.

And I believe it's rideable. The DS and the Quadzilla frames are WAY bigger than the blaster. Don't knock it until you can prove it cause there are many people out ther who got that kind of money to make that stuff. I know a guy with a Big block motor in a MG Midget. Anythings possible.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
