Thanks for the kind words... it is a blast to have it finished.. 12 months from start to road legal, and another 6 months till finally all done.

Very nice! bet u r well pleased with that!

Sorry to hijack the thread, but I am also planning on putting an R1 engine in my roadster. Do you have any good websites/ books or sources of information that might help me with my build?

Thanks
Leigh

You could try this one...

I used the Yamaha R1 service manual to do the wiring.

Have fun.

The colour is The Ford focus XR5 turbo code 6fse. It is a tri-colour system.. basecoat, tint coat, clearcoat.
Cheers
