My KDX in CR chassis

[Duneman]

you guys are awesome, I took the old crf450 swingarm and cut one side of it off and had a large peace of C channel welded on to it, cause I am putting the shock along side kind of half inside it and still duplicate the rising rate using the same linkage and the same linkage angles, sounds complicated, but it's so I can remove the shock and shock tower in another rolling chassis, call me crazy but the reason is to install an RSV1000 Aprilia engine, I have already did all my measuring and it will be a challenge, Rotax makes there RSV engine and they will sell them but ebay has several street V engines and that I am considering putting in, the fuel would be caried where the airbox is and the airbox where the fuel tank is. pegs will need billet extentions, and the frame beefed up. Not sure what purpose I would use it for, most likely I would sell it.

Duneman, put down the wrenchs and come to the greatest week in the year. Not only is DRN an awesome web location, DRN puts on the BEST party for dirt riders in the world.

DW is an event. DW is a family reunion. DW is a party. DW is dirtridingpolozza. DW is a phenomenon.

You're not dumb, just living under a rock :joke:

Here's a bit of a followup on this...Duneman shared the story of his awesome bike with me, and I put it down for him on my site...says he's working on more specifics and shots of the project, but here's what he has so far:
