MK with GSXR1000 engine

Hi,

Anyone out there built an MK with a GSXR1000 engine. Getting ready to order the kit and found a 2003 engine. Any advice gladly received.

I think MK did one themselves.

As said though, some have dry sumped, which is a pricey option. Speak to MK about what they did with their Rizla demo car.

Was that before or after the engine went bang at Snetterton?

(guess who was the passenger at the time...)

Indy GXSR1000

Did consider the R1 and fireblade but went for the GSXR because of my ride in the MK Rizla. Also know someone using the same engine in a race series so hopefully so tips to be picked up.

My old KC has a GSXR1000 K2 engine. Sold to Gixer Indy now. MK did quite a bit of work on the car originally and when I last spoke to MK they remembered the car well!
