Questions

#1 Unread post by stupidnuk »

I recently wrecked my motorcycle (minor damage to the bike, minor injuries to me ) and would like to know something. Can I install a Marauder 1600 motor into a Marauder 800 frame? I know that the 1600 is fuel injected and was wondering how difficult this would be if it is possible? My VZ800 Marauder is not fuel injected. Just a question about possibilities because I think I have out grown my 800. The wreck was not my fault, someone pulled out in front of me and rather that rear end them, I slammed on my brakes and put the bike down on the left side. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Nope, the frame sizes and motor mount locations are different. Although you can always hop up the motor while it's out of the frame :twisted:

That's what I thought, at least now I know. Thanks.
