I think I'd go for the flat 6 from a Goldwing and mount it in the back. :twisted:
It infuriates me to be wrong when I know I'm right

Why bother with bike engines when you can stick a V6 into it :wink:

I'm sure it will fit, the ES9J4 is a remarkably compact V6. Engine and gearbox occupies less than a metre cube....

Be as exciting as watching paint dry (honda dullwing).

"saw bike engined saxo & a rascal wan with ninja engine & thought..... "

There you go, s'all about power to weight ratio aint it,etc,
but why on earth you'd want to put a bike engine into a berlingo (aka,shopping trolley),is beyond me...lol,

V8, 12, hell yeah,......but like a '70's yank, FUNFUNFUN...
..in a straight line.

Most are in kit cars,katerham 7's etc,big gsxr,hyabusa,kwak,honda fireblade 900 etc

Do a quick search on bike engined cars.Some people put bike carbs on cars etc, can be more effective than webber carbs and the like :wink:

But on a berlingo???????? No.... :shock: please no lol
