This particular engine had a trashed clutch cover so a new one needed to be fitted.

RC51parts.com new lightweight billet clutch cover installed!:





Just enough bling while adding some more crash protection.....

And there ya have it!!!


JB's BANGKOK BRUISER HORD POWER ENGINE!!!







This should be one hell of a good reliable engine for running up and down the soi's, the occasional track day at Bira Circuit and the 230Km hour blasts down the expressway!!

Without doubt this will be the most badass SP2 in all of SE Asia and with everything else on this bike one of the most trick SP's around!!!

Now just to get it fitted and front mounts in place...look out!!!!

Our motors will probably make similar power - what clutch configuration are you running now?

I just got the call from Fedex telling me how much Thai customs duties and taxes I am liable for .... OMFG!!!

Where is the "bend over and grab your ankles" emotion? will have to do.

All I can say is: wouldn't mind a piece of their action, anybody would.
