Left side shot. I wanted to make a bad ass track bike that was something a bit differant and would last a bit. Bought a 2000 996RS engine from Bruce Meyer(BCM fame) to go with the corse frame I was running a modded 996 in for a few years. The frame was complete with RS mag swingarm,mag offset triples,Airbox,ect,ect. The only things not true RS/Corsa are R/T forks, 54mm exhaust and a 748RS harness,which means it is front mount and matchs all the connects but is for a 1.6 CPU. I put '99 Pistal pistons in it to lower the compression a bit(make it last). I had to swap out the entire left engine side from a donor 996 to get the parts needed for a 1.6 conversion. Also added a starter motor. It was about a year project to get it up and running. Engine was rebuilt with fresh bearings, valves, ect as well. Makes 150ish HP.
