I reckon around £750. To fire it up? I think everything is there. ECU, loom, carbs, sensors.

Looks like its all there to run the engine.There are some other links elsewhere in the forum with tips etc on running the engine in a car and few other little bits you need to do.

Well done Layot, good engine for a good price........

The engine should be ready to run as it is, no need for further expense. The sump is designed to be run at the angle of the engine in the bike, about 20deg off vertical if i recall correct, also designed for extreme angles and wheelying so will be okay as it is.

Good build. Look forward to picks....AndyH
