What have you done to the airbox to make it fit upside down? I thought the ZX10 was a right pain to get the airbox to stay on in its normal
configuration!
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

hi
really like and am impressed with the fabricated chain diff, i have been thinking about how to pull this off for a while, do you think it would be
possible to weld another sprocket on so you could run two chain driven bike engines onto the same diff, have you seen this anywhere else, i think some
of the autograssers do this but have never seen any pics
all the best with the build
cheers

just pulled the rubbers out and put them back in upsidedown, it will be going back on as standard but need to mod the bottom first for clearance.

No idea about running two engines to one diff, i think you would have issues with the spacing. A quick think and all i can come up with is 2 diffs in
line, one on each engine and a shaft between to connect them together.
