    What kind of market will you have against the All Mighty GN250 at $3500?

    As I see it. I would rather buy a new GN and chop it... But I can't get it over my hart using a 250 as a chopper.(It's like using a lawn mower engine as a motor for a tour bike.)

    You've never ridden a Road King have you Bert?
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Good on you with the entreprenuerial spirit. Welcome to KB, hang around here for more than just marketing, because it is actually a pretty sweet place.

    If you offer a good product, you could do quite well. Just remember that with bikes quality is key, because human bodies are fragile, and bikes can be very very ficcle.

    I hope that you do well.

    But I'll tell you, I would have preferd to ride one of these than the other bike with that engine.

    Come one mate, half the choppers around the world are running older design motors.
    How complicated can you make a single cyclinder, carbie piece of piss motor? It is also nice because you can do all the necessary work yourself, even the internal engine componenetry is very basic.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    Single Cylinder?

    Have a closer look mate, that's an inline twin. Infact that motor looks like the one in my Honda Rebel. Even talking to PITTBULL back when this thread first started, it's actually a copy of the Rebel Engine.

    Funny that you mention simple too. Could you perhaps tell me how to swap the top part of the motor out? the bit that the carbs and exhaust connect to, Including all torque settings and where the timing marks and such are. Need to know so I can fix my 250 and make it ridable again.
