V11 engine and gearbox in LM4 frame?

[Guest motordude]

Hello all, I have an LM4, and was wondering if a V11 engine and gearbox would fit without any major modifications to the frame?

 

Thanks,

John

Have a look on www.guzzitech.com - Todd Egan there has a V11 motor in a Tonti frame.

Here's my AHRMA Vintage Superbike Heavyweight racer (almost done). Sport 1100 engine in Lemans3 frame with Lemans/ T3 gearbox.

 

Not that difficult to do. You'll need to use a Tonti bike timing cover and figure out a breather system. I'll be posting build specs and pix after i race at Willow Springs in 2 weeks.

 

Also major thanks to Greg Field who pulled parts from a motor of his to get me up and running quicker.

I have a V11 gearbox and final drive in my garage i intend to put in a Tonti frame. The frame has to be widthend, and also the swingarm need radical modification. this is not done in a single afternoon. My plan is to build a frame jig, and do a CAD model first.

Looks like a good bike to ride. Look forward to seeing specs, but meanwhile what is front wheel/brakes/forks?

 

Good luck at the races! what else in class?

I think thats a lot of cutting/welding. Best thing would maybe be to move the swingarm-pivot forward, and extend the swingarm.
