I'm pretty set on having an FJR1300.
Several on feeBay but nothing local.
This will be unusual in that it is going to be REAR mounted.
If it works well I know some other cars that may get similar engines.
Need some details from those who know.
Oiling mods needed?
How many miles are too many to buy the engine?
Most of the decently priced engines seem to be 04 - 06, newer are double the cost.
Of course every engine I find is stripped, no intake, exhaust, ECU, wire harness, gauges.
Starter, alternator, and clutch may or may not have been removed.
Am I missing anything from my list above that I will need?
'Busa engines get sold as kits but FJR's are not recognized as suitable for BEC conversions by the salvage yards.
So by the time I get a complete set cost is about double.
Too bad all the on-line bike salvage operations seem to be scams.
Even if the bike "Sells" for reasonable money their "Registration" and sales fee's are a rip-off.
