Commuter Bike?

Right, with me hardly finished ANY of the variuos projects around the house..

Quick rundown if you have a minute..

Suzuki Beamish.. currently in its being 'restored'

Kawasaki Kr1s with stupid 700cc engine Supermono race bike... needs some stuff doing for a MOT

4X4 Jago... don't ask, includes a Suzuki SJ and a Jago jeep....

A lawnmower engine I'm 'intending' to build into a battery charger/engine starter thing.

Then theres the log burner in the living room to sort out.. the new bathroom in the back bedroom and varuious other things involving all the worth les scrap I have lying around.

Now to the point...

Being unemployed for the last 6 months I now find myself in the position of choosing between two jobs.. and I've decided to do both

So, working at Nissan during the week and driving trucks at the weekend I need to drive down the western A1 bypass at 7.30 in the morning. Anyone who has been down there at that time will know what I mean, the M25 is a doddle!

So, last but not least I have a Peugout scooter, 100cc Speedfight job that I think would be ideal if only it was capable of 70mph.

An engine transplant is on the cards, but which one???

A hayabusa would fit the bill. Might be safer to transplant the chassis while you're at it.

You need another project???

Why not finish some of the ones youve got, sell them and put the money towards something worthwhile rather than putting a larger motor in a hairdryer?
