hi guys was originally going to go for a r1 5jj motor but have been offered a 2006 r1 5vy engine with everything needed at a good price will i have any problems fitting this newer type and do you know if my cradle mount will still fit?

i dont think the cradle is the same unfortunately, but if you dont mind a few mods, then there is are no problems fitting them. Ive got the 5vy in mine. i got it with everything included, and was a doddle to get up and working
