@@ReedMakeCar yes. What did you put in the rear end? Even if you put a 4:56 or something like that still wouldn’t make up for it. What is the cars curb weight right now?
a cbr1000rr can make a lot more than 170hp, especially with a bigger less restrictive intake and exhaust. also the bike drivetrain will weigh a lot less than a car drivetrain. the real reason car manufacturers don't do this is because it turns the car into a complete racecar, the miata is expected to last well over 100k miles while cbr1000rr drivetrain would be doing pretty good if it hit 50k, and that's pulling a 400lb vehicle not a 2000lb vehicle. also the poor clutch lol
Isn't that annoying? They're allowed to build something like that and drive it legally on the road. BUT, full throttle in 4th, 5th or even 6th gear is illegal (speed limit). In Germany you are allowed to drive that fast, but building something like that is illegal. Btw.: I would like to have a "Tipo 184" (kit car from England, with MX-5/Miata parts), but that is also illegal here in Germany.
really clean job looks / sounds sick. great way to get a high revving engine w/ sequential shifter. maybe could cut a hole in the floor in order to reverse fred flintstone style
My only question is what is the longevity gonna look like. People say a bike is worn out after like 40k miles and that's ALOT more load on that thing than a 450lb bike.
who are these people saying a bike is worn out after 40k miles? Most japanese bikes can go 100k+ miles easily if properly maintained. Problem is there's a lot of idiots with sport bikes that don't maintain them. I don't see anyone driving a car like this more than a few thousands miles a year anyways, it's a toy/track car rather than a commuter or road trip car.

Awesome little thing. Race car experience without quite the instant licence losing power. I think quaife do reversing boxes for bike engined cars, might be worth a look.
@@superbarnie Even without a quick-shifter, you can usually upshift a sequential without a clutch, just lift off the throttle. Not good for the transmission, but it works. This coming from a CBR-1000RR it probably has a quick shifter though.
@@rightwingsafetysquad9872 You are correct, except for one part. There's no harm to the transmission from shifting this way. An actual quickshifter does the same exact thing, except instead of lifting the throttle to reduce load, the quickshifter cuts ignition when you are pulling on the gear shifter lever. So the mechanic is the same either way.
There's a thing called a motor mover used for caravans, basically a powered spindle that presses onto the tyre to move a campervan around via remote control. Something similar might be a decent option for a reverse🤷
As soon as I heard the starter motor I knew it was a CBR1000RR, I got one and it sounds exactly like it. I rewinded and I realized I totally missed the dash and the keychain lol.
Colossal pain in the ass to supercharge bikes - you don't really have a free end of the crankshaft sticking out driving accessories to work with like you do on automotive applications
Really cool......only difference is, on a bike you would be doing about 5 x the speed obviously. Sounds fun, but leaves one a little wanting in the adrenaline dept. What was the bike engine from?....Then again I looked at the speedo and it's not doing badly, even with the extra weight!!!
Now I wanna bike power a car. Had put a bike exhaust on when I first got it. Sounded so good. Unscrewed the silencer and plucked it out. Someone stole it after I cut it off and had it sitting in my backyard . Smh. Definitely wanted to put it back.
