    Wanted: Yamaha FZR250 rolling chassis

    Should be mostly straight. I want to bolt in an engine I've reduced to 125cc to which a turbo is getting connected. Cosmetics aren't important. It won't need electrics.

    Hey it's something to do.

    The engine is actually all bolted together. I was going to turbo it originally, then I latched onto a tiny supercharger (300cc/rev) but now I'm unemployed so it's back to the turbo for cost reasons. As you can see it is just a 250 with 2 cylinders cut off. Thankfully a good friend has a business with lots of welders and is good enough to let me use one of the TIG welders so some progress is still possible with this and another project (RS125/MB100 bucket). I'm injecting it as well with Haltech engine management which I already have running on my McIntosh, though just for the ignition on that.

    Thought that was going into a sidecar. Mind you who would you race with it I guess.

    Sorry to hear the job situation has gone pear shape. Hope something decent comes along.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
