R1 1600 Turbo Engine cradle problem

Hi Guys,

I have an R1 1600cc Turbo engine which needs a serious cradle to hold the power.

Can someone take a look at the photo below and tell me if it will hold?

Cheers,

I think it needs a bit more bracing from the front to stop it tilting back IMHO

There is a serious amount of power there so be careful!

You will really feel the wind through your hair when that gets going....

I never thought of the Locost as a hairdressers car
