Cheap zx10 engine

I could be wrong, but I saw this on ebay and it does look a little on the cheap side?

Doesn't include everything: "This engine comes with an uncoded ECU that will allow it to run. This engine does not come with radiator and exhaust downpipes. I also have a coded ECU with keys that I can sell (with the engine or seperately). This would mean that the engine then had a built in immobiliser."

Seems a bit sus that he's got a picture of the whole bike, but can't say what the mileage was???

Is the Odometer digital ? The bike seems to have had a heavy front end bump, might have broken the odo ?...

His turn over is 15k this last month so he is doing business. His strategy is to move parts rather than sit on them for ages. He is a powerseller with only a few negs so he does check out.

I bought this engine

and picked it up on saturday.

the seller operates out of a small industrial unit in Kiddiminster. the bikes are sourced from the benelux countries and have been put down the road. I was shown the reciept for the bike .... and felt sick.. belive me .. he's making enough....

bike had indeed had a full front on smash.. the fork tubes had sheared clean in half.. but the clocks had survived... sadly they had been sold..

engine was good and clean, however I haven't been able to start it yet. for the price I paid, I saved enough to pay for a fair amount of work,.. I was also given a months guarantee ... lets hope I don't need it...

ok.... does anyone have a plan for a cradle to fit this??????
