Would this be possible without having that ugly a$$ cradle on the bottom of the frame or making a custom tank? Who knows someone that has done one?
THIS WOULD BE ONE OF THE SICKEST ATVS!

A 750 may be a better choice because the power may be more useful and easier to control but as long as the frame can handle it i want all the power i can get.I am still in the research phase of this project so any ideas will be appreciated.I would like to find a shop that has done this kind of work before so that i can get an idea of cost and what all is involved so that is probably my first step.

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] My '01 R-1 makes right at 150 hp.The newer models with EFI make around 170.The '04's have ram air and are closer to 180 hp.One thing you better invest in is some really sticky grips.
