i dunno that one looks like a ligit situation. Well if you wanted it all you have to do is ask him some questions that any quad owner would know and see if his answerss seem funny.

if i read the ebay ad right it says he bought it to put the r1 motor in it, looks legit to me, he pulled the 700 motor and stuffed an R1000 in its place. there is a guy near me who did the same thing and all i can say is ****(you choose the expletive) ITS FAST. It's surprisingly controllable too(after he added a plus 4" swingarm).with the stock control arm it was fun ,but 1/4 throttle was all i could use and keep the front end down and i'm about 270 pounds. even with the plus 4 it will wheelie at any speed, but not as abruptly as with the stock swingarm. back to the point, it is a somewhat common swap to put the R1000 in the rappy frame, but i think i'd have found a used one to build or just started with a fresh aftermarket frame and went form there. to each his own i guess.

I looked real hard, and found Waldo! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Looks like it's a real deal auction. Would like to see the finished results of the swap. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
