Default Anyboby know what a YZF Engine costs?

Hey, I'm just wondering if anyone has one of the YZF bikes, and had any work done on the engine?

From what I've read, the cylinder is ceramic coated, and with all the titanium, aluminum, and magnizium, it sounds like a spendy sucker to fix if/when anything goes wrong...What about boaring it over?

I'm pretty sure that you can't buy just the motor, only the bike unless your a factory racer or something. My cousin has a YZ400F. He also has a Honda 250R. He had the motor in the quad for a while and he did really good racing. He just recently took the motor out of the quad and had a Poweroll 440 kit installed and when he got it back he put it in the bike to break it in. Well he brought the bike over to my house and said man you gotta ride this thing! So I wasn't too suprised at first being that I have a DS650 and I know that's fast as hell. So I got on his bike and I DAMN NEAR $HIT MYSLEF!!!!!! I thought my DS was fast, lol!! This bike fu#kin rolls!!!! I swear to god, I was in third gear on the back wheel front wheel about a foot off the ground putting a TRENCH in the ground and the bike was trying to go sideways!!! I have never ridden ANYTHING faster!!!! All I can say is if this new Yamaha quad isn't detuned from the bike motor to quad, everyone is in big big trouble!!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
