[QUOTE="CedarRiverScooter, post: 396982, member: 15465"] Cool build! Wish I had your welder. I just spent 15 minutes typing a post only to also lose it before it took. So here goes again . . . I've been keeping it to myself, but I am also working on a CR install. Little brother to yours, YZF600R, was a basket case. I was feeling it was a crazy idea, but that never stopped me before. I don't like my 2 smokey PWC engine & couldn't find a Yammie marine engine at affordable price. I don't want to steal your thunder, but have made some progress on mine. I will temp mount the engine above deck & run chain down to shaft, supported with a pillow block bearing. If engine works out (I question if it has enough torque), then will fab permanent mounts, etc. Will have to move my fuel tank too. I next need to figure out how to mount the sprocket onto the shaft without machining the splines. Thinking of heat shrinking a collar on with a woodruff key. I have modified the header, let us know what you are doing there. Keep post the pictures! [/QUOTE]
