bike engine cradle
Paul (Notts) - 12/4/12 at 09:33 AM

Just starting work on the Terrapin Hill climb car. A bit cheeky but I am after pictures of any motorbike engine cradles that people have used. I have a ZX12r and already have a few ideas.

So if any one has pictures of their engine cradle I would be most grateful.

Paul.

This is the engine cradle for my trike (on the back of a single-seater tub)...

Some Pics in here, http://locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=132958 but I assume that you need a Mid?Rear Engined car for an accurate photo to help you?

Have a look at my blog on the engine upgrade section.

Hi
I have one for sale on ebay for Yamaha R1 out of an Indy but should fit any 7 type kit car.

Thanks for the replies…

Got some good ideas. Now need to get on with it.

First task is to order lots of steel tube.

And make a large flat table to build on.
