QuoteBut a 750 engine?   ::)

 :-/Say I had a GSXR1000 motor/wiring harness/fuel injec./ will it fit in the GSXR600 frame, truthfully, does anyone know?
  ;)If it does, I will have to update my sale of my 600 to: " GSXR 600 Super Sport race bike, motor makes 150 hp. on pump gas, if you have to ask for how much$, you probably can't afford it "  ;D

 >:(So did Darren have this unfair combo for his amatuer national championships?   >:(How about his numerous regional championships? I'll give him the respect of being a good rider, all regional championships are not won with pure HP, although the national championships at Daytona mostly are.
 In short, I used to admire him for his achievements, I will say I now have no respect for his accomplishments for they are all tainted. TAINTED I SAY!! So here you go Luck, We shall all refer to you as Richard Cranium from now on!!
 Winner on track, don't make you a winner in life. :P

Now while I haven't tried this myself, I *believe* everything fits.  All you have to do is cut the 600 motor mounts out, and weld-in the ones from the 1000.

Tho you'd probably want to run the braced swingarm out of the 1000 as well - tho then that'd be kind of a large giveaway...

QuoteMOTOR OR NO MOTOR!! he rode like hell to finish that well. Motor only doesnt get you over the line in front of everyone else. He cheated?? yes.. but still to finish that high in an AMA event.. some credit is due folks.. 8)
I guess everybody who cheats at any level deserves credit as long as they do well.. ;D ;D ;D
Do you want to touch my Monkey?

"HE SLIPPED AND TOLD THAT THE MOTOR THEM D.S. HAD BUILT THE MOTOR AND HE WAS THERE AT THE TRACK. SO THIS MADE CHANGES (D.S.)"

What does this mean? R u talking about Dick a FS Racing?

The grapevine said he had the 750 motor in the 600 a while back, but nobody ever paid to tear him down.  I didn't believe it until now...just sad. :'(  However, he also won several heavyweight championships on a 750 too, so I guess he's still a fast rider.  Probably screwed himself pretty good though.

I've looked all over the web and there is no press release at all about Darren Luck.Is this just hearsay or what? does anybody have a link to prove this?There is no mention on the official AMA web site or any other

The top factory riders still pulled away from Darren (with or without a 750 engine).  And having been there to watch the races, I'd say allow all the privateers a 750 engine to equal the field.  Sure would be some very good racing.  At the moment though it was exciting to watch him race with the factory guys.

Go to the Supersport results at www.roadracingworld.com.  It says there at the end of the results that he DQ'd.  I thought there may be a little more buzz about this sort of thing, too.

the sad thing is thats the question it creates.

trust me...it indeed is a fact.....

d.s. , by the way, is Dick Suarez....


what funniest to me...is that darren threw such a fit about mike smith winning in jennings with a crossed pair valve, which is no significant advantage, and in fact, actually does more harm than good, and darren probably was running a 750 motor then as well.
