Yeah true, but if you look i'm pretty sure they have used the gearbox from the bike as he has 2 gearshifts in the car one for each engine and it's still 1 down 5 up.

bike engines don't have separate gearbox like a car its all one, Plus with these conversions theres no reverse, u gotto add a starter motor for reverse but was sloow, now theres a proper add on which is powered by engine :thumbsup:.
my cousin doing a promotive r1 conversion to his mini engine up front, when i get round to do mine i'll be using gsxr1000 lump stronger gearbox never blown any on bikes had, but r1s i blow 3 ;) .

i'd have to go with the Hayabusa turbo if i was going to do a mini conversion like that :D I wonder if you could fit the 1800 goldwing engine in? they have reverse already. Although not sure what those engine's are like i've never had a go on one myself.
