That V twin looks like a nice fit in there any chance of a few more engine photos from differed angles?
I've always wondered what a V twin would be like in a seven!
As you had an R1 before it will be interesting to here you views when its finished hope it doesn't disappoint

Kev beware that rear filler on the fuel tank, mine is a bitch to fill up at the pump. Many a time i've had my foot covered in fuel, i am
thinking of changing to a top loader in the summer.

feet!!!

I can vouch for how good it sounds, its awesome.
i'll be going for a top loading filler as well, make much more sense.
Kev, if i recall the colour of your car is "anthracite grey".

Hello Kev - where are you ?
Be interested to know what radiator you used for a W7DE. I think Scotty suggested a Golf, as opposed to the usual Polo, but when I checked dimensions
it seemed that it wouldn't fit inside the nosecone.
Mine is on its wheels now and next step is lift the engine/gearbox in.

it is a golf radiator, should fit perfectly with the wide nosecone,
if you use a rubber hise for the fuel pipe it's not too bad sort of aim it up in the filler and it flows round just fine, if you have a top
loader you get probs with water etc. . .
