Well I have been kicking around the 7/11 swap for a while now and I finally figured I would take the plunge. I went out this weekend and started gathering up some bits and pieces.
First before I upgraded to any real ponies I want to be able to handle it in the twistes and be able to stop good, so I found a 1997 Katana 750 roller for $400.00 (minus the motor and gas tank) that gets me the rubber, rims, brakes, front forks, and rear swinger. all the rest is going on flea-bay and CL.
Then after allot of searching I came across an 1100 engine for $250.
It has one cylinder blown for sure and not sure what else until I open it up, but it appears to be a 1983 bottom end and either a 1980 / 1981 top end all cobbled together. Could end up being a night mare but time will tell.
So now I have most of the pieces I need now just need to get them all up to snuff and bolted together.
Hopefully if this all goes well I want to bolt a turbo up to the 1100 sometime in the next year. (we will see how it goes)
Here are some pics of what I got what do you think??
