Dazeys: How bad was it to put that motor in the quad. Did everything line up okay, how about electronics? Once again dont know that much about suzuki's so any help is greatly appreciated.

Not until I read your post I didn't. I checked into it and found out Skully is only leaving it open for 30 days to give people time to copy any information they want then he's shutting it back down.

The biggest problem is get the output shaft lined up with the swingarm pivot point. There is not a lot of ground clearance when it is. I put Z400 hubs on it with Suzuki Vinson 12" wheels and 25" tires. I gives me aroun 7" of clearance with me on it.
I also made intake runners out of copper pipe to mount my Throttle bodies at a 45* angle behind the engine. I could then mount the tank in the original spot and the stock plastic still fits. Installed a fuel pump and regulator just behind the front bummper. The battery and ECM behind the engine just above the swingarm pivot.

Thanks alot, the part i would be most worried about is the electrical. Did you just use the stock main wire harness and run it into the ECM. Did you cut anything out or did you have to use everything.

I got the whole harness and ECM when I bought the engine. Found the gauges, key switch and bar switches on ebay. Every thing just plugged together.
