« on: August 30, 2009, 11:27:23 AM »
so i got a lead on a new engine, 1997 suzuki TL1000S, says fuel injected? came out of a wrecked bike, was in a pulling tractor, tractor was then sold and some other engine put in.  comes with all wiring and everything needed to run.  $ wise, not much more than a hand shake..  should i buy it?

Those are pretty good motors. Not quite as powerful as an RC51, but they are bullet proof.

it was in a mini pulling tractor..  they are for recreational events, start at a start line, they are hooked to a sled that gets heavier as you go, the point is to see who can pull it the farthest...   

cant believe you never seen the huge national events of full size tractor pulling.

they'd fit in great here  ;D  I've been to quite a few of these shows, the one on this little island pays $20 000 to the winner of king of the hill  ;D  It's one of the most violent forms of motorsports up close from a mechanical view.  Some of the tractors are 18 000 lbs and the front tires never touch the ground.  The feeling from 3000 plus hp screaming beside you less then 20 feet away is insane.
