    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

OK, I'm thinking about my swapping motor with something a bit beefier. I need to know roughly what is the weight of the 1100g motor and what size are the standard mikuni cv carbs. Thanks for your input.

you going to use another shaft driven motor in it???
 
Yeah, I'm thinking of putting an 1100 motor into my 850 frame. They're both shafties. The reason I need to know the weight is for shipping costs.
 
Hmmmm, I had a boat with a 185 lb outboard and was able to pick it up and hang it on the transom and I have a assembled Nissan 4 cyl car engine that weighs 245 lb that I picked up and put on a dolly. I have an assembled spare 16 valve 1100 engine and I cannot pick it up and put it on the dolly.
( I had to block it up in stages and walk it onto the dolly) So, my best GUESS is something in the 250-275 lb range. Probably counting crating, you should plan on a max of about 300 lbs.
