Hey all.

Talked to Darren Via email last couple of days. Looks like I will be buying another kit.

Will I be the only pro-motive powered Pick-up?

I sold my previous kit to someone. Just wondering if they are on the forum. Lived by Red Deer Alberta..

Darren. I'm heading to the bank Monday morning with your down payment!

i would bite the bullet and go for the 5PW. I did a lot of research and in the end that is the engine i got. i have ridden in both a 4xv and a 5pw powered mini as well and the 5pw is deffinitely where it is at.

I will probaly end up spending close to 11000 Canadian dollars by the time Im done.

7671 for the kit with LSD (4545gbp)
3000 for a complete bike. However ill hopefully get half back with the left over bike parts

Speedo healer
Barnnett clutch parts
Bazzaz fuel management system
Odds and ends like slave clutch cylinder
Fuel pump and fuel line
Upgraded brakes
Ect...

I had one prior to this upcoming build. Just did not have the funds to finish it. I finally can afford to finish this one properly. I was in a rush to get it done the first time and I am kicking my own arse for selling it.
