i have an older yamaha warrior that is in primo condition but i have used the engine very hard. the engine still runs ok, but i have been considering a re-power. i have an opportunity to purchase a 02 yamaha R6 for $400.00 that has been laid down and the body is in very poor condition. have any of you guys ever converted anything over to an R6. i think it could make a really sweet dune machine with maybe a 4 -6 inch extended swing arm. there are several videos on youtube of quads converted to R6 power plants. what do you guys think?

i say go for it. ide be interested to see the build.

it would be a fun hill shooter.

Ive seen banshees with r1 motors and they straight up rip! if you have the dough for the motor and an open chassis go for it!. i dont think it would be that great for jumping or riding all over the dunes but the hills would sure be fun.

i appologize for the error but it is not an r1 it is an r6 donor. i knew it was an r6 but for some reason i kept thinking r1, sorry for the mistake. even though its only a 600, i still think it would still be a fun build and i think it would rip.
