Hi lads, i can pick up a zx12 engine with running gear for £1600 is this a ok price??? im tempted to plonk a bike engine in mine cos my old xe is a bit to quick for me

What year is it? How many miles has it done and does that price include the clocks?

Think its a 03 comes with all running gear aswell, im tempted

...and what makes you think this'll be any slower?

Yeh well they dont have the shear grunt of the xe, but it will make up for it on handling etc..........

Grunt? Grunt? there's no answer to that!

The '12's got stacks... compared to our previous blade engine! Not a bad price BTW!

Yeah that is a good price! Averages around £1800 to £2200 depending on mileage and condition.

Go for it!
