If you want track day fun then R1.. if you want to Xhit yourself, Hayabusa... if you want day to day use and performance then Honda Vtec. Go and visit Zcars for yourself to make your mind up.

loadsa cash - hyabusa
restrained realism - R1

I picked mine (R1) up for £1300.00 with all ancillaries and clocks, but like an idiot just smiled when told no keys - what a t :thumbsup: *at I felt when told its gonna cost me in excess of 300 quid to get keys mated to the transponder and ecu !!

whatever you get make sure you get everything - and see it running before you part with cash.

talk to malc at yorkshire engines - good guy dealing only in bike engines for BEC conversions - on ebay and simple google search.
