Hey all,

Looking for a good dry sump Oil system.

Andy advice on where to start looking? (Not importing from overseas, US only.)

I figured this is a must since the motor will be mounted in the frame and will not be leaning like a bike does in the corners.

Be sure to have the tranny under cut. Second gear is a problem in the Gen I .

You might Try Schnitz racing. They have a number of oil pan options, though I didn't see anything directly related to dry sumping. They may be able to point you in the right direction. Also take a look at the Psychobike forums.

not sure what that means.. LOL might have to look that up. . Undercut 2nd gear. - On the look up to do list.

Ok, so I figured I would start this since I'm getting some pictures in.

I am having the shop tear down the Busa for me and stick the motor in the frame.

I'll take shipment of the kit in October, 2015

By the way... is there any reason I should ask for the left over parts? frame, body panels, etc?

Is there a good aftermarket for that stuff?

You could put them up for sale on here to recoup some of your costs. Depends on what your time is worth.

How much are the fairings and frame worth?

A wrecking yard generally charges about 50% of new so...

lease: Sweet! Definitely keep us posted with pictures (and videos of finished product). If I didn't JUST buy a car, I'd be looking this up. I want one.

[Franknbeans]

Need all the pictures to 1. Make sure it's done right. 2. For registration in for the roads in PA. 3. Well, because who doesn't want to look through a book of pictures.
