Does anyone have any drawings of their cradle / mounts? Is there a 'kit car standard'?

Cheers

i posted help when i went to fit my zx10r engine into my book chassis. the best advice anyone gave me was to talk to MK... they were fantastic, and didn't mind that it was not one of their chassis...

If it will help then have a look at my pictures on facebook ... search for Adrian.hughes@talbotuw.com.. there should be a few hints... and yes... i do have OCD ...

How strange... so do I?

Can't get on to Facebook - anyone else have any drawings or pics they can share with me?

Please!

I didn't use a cradle & rubber mounted it.
Nice to not get vibration white everything...

So you have options.....

I know the engine is not a r1 but if you look at Roadrunner's photos there is a cradle i made for him [zx9r]
It may help you with ideas

Cheers chaps... keep em coming!

Could still do with some more pics of the mounts and/or cradles that folks have used to fit their R1's.

hey scootz,

some pics of an '04 r1 cradle on my site

good luck

Here's my 03 engine mounts

A slightly different engine to the 04 but I think the mounting pickup points are reasonably similar.

yours is similar to how i usually do mine chris, a pair of spars bolted down and a couple of mounts on the chassis direct.
