I'm almost half way through a two year motorsport engineering course at college and next year we have to take on a fully self funded project to complete. Admiteddly this is more of a car based course but i spoke to one of my lecturers and he gave me the green light for taking on a bike. At the moment I'm leaning towards the idea of a mental b*stard DT supermoto project, possibly RD350 powered? I know for sure i want a bigger capacity engine in there but preferably 2 stroke. Gotta be under the 400cc mrk though cause of the new bike laws... no

So yeah, any ideas/thoughts would be appreciated, i'll post some pics of the kinda thing i'm think of

Cheers

No you're right it's not, the 12 is a 180 rear i think but not certain on that...

The bandit 600 rear wheel would still look fairly chunky especially in comparison to what i've got in mine at the moment :P

Yeah i think i'll really go to town if i do this, wouldn't be right to half do it

b6 wheel is 4.5, gsxr 600/750s are 5.5 and 1000s are 6 inch wide, id guess the b12 is 5.5? if your gunna do the wheels engine ect, may aswell go for some usd forks and a nicer rear shock
