Yamaha GP-800R Motor on Banshee

I put a 05 cbr1000rr engine in a kfx700 moddified frame. With a nearly free flowing intake and exhaust it was putting almost 170HP at the wheels. With 12000 rpm's and a 6 spead tranny, it was down right nasty, king of the hill where im from. That is on a basically stock inline 4 banger. The only problem was the size and weight, I ride about 90% trails. I had it for a while but ended up selling it and here I am now with a banshee, go figure. I loved the power and it turned heads everywhere it went, but it was just too much for the way I ride. I would throw it in second gear and rarely ever had to shift going threw the trails. With power like that you would be foolish to try and tap into it on the trails.

So if it is a straight line killer, throw a twin turbo viper engine in it and if it is a trail bike, keep it simple.
