Hi I got my 1999 zx9r engine for £400 with ecu, carbs, headers e.t.c. Just need the fuel pump and dials. Thinks its done 16000 miles can't remember now. Not sure if it runs yet as I haven't got that far and haven't wanted to go outside recently with all the snow.
Don't mind doing a rebuild of sorts for that kind of money though, probably needs some TLC. They seem to sell for good prices compared to a fireblade or R1, and are pretty high revving and powerful.
Ozzy has given me lots of tips for fitting the zx9r. I managed to grab a milled baffle plate for £12 from ebay unused although I'm not sure how neccessary it is, unless your racing. The only inconvenience is I think I'm going to have to chop the alluminium sump down because there is an area that hangs down below the rest of the sump that must be for a bit of extra oil capacity. Looks like it will seek out the speed bumps left as it is.

Chris
