Home brew bike engined mini update
r1_manx - 1/12/08 at 04:40 PM

Hello everyone,

My friend James and I are currently about 12 months into a FWD Yamaha R1 mini build (www.r1manx.com and www.flickr.com/r1manx). I posted about the car some months ago and just wanted to throw up a quick update on our progress. We hope to have a running prototype in a few months time all being well, any advice/criticism on our project is always welcomed.

Cheers

Ben and James

Nice looking... (car, I mean, honest!). btw, do you have SVA to deal with like we do in the UK, or how does it work for modifield cars like yours?
