748 748 - 853 Conversion Reccomendations In The Uk

  1. I realise these are quite old conversions/kits but i'm really interested in getting one for my 748.

    Can anyone recommend anywhere to get it fitted/dyno'd up etc.

    Through research i found Sigma but then noticed on their site they stopped doing this sort of thing in 2007.

    Ive seen a few EVR kits for sale:

    Thanks in advance for any info on this

    **I know there are a lot of posts/info about the conversions but they're all quite dated.
     
  2. I looked long and hard at what was available before ordering. IMO, the EVR kit is excellent and the kit I bought for a 748R (other model specific kits available), included an EPROM. Your target budget will dictate how much work you have done, from a basic swap of barrels and pistons right the way up to a blueprint engine rebuild. Budget for valve clearance service as a minimum on top of parts. You might be able to find a complete engine already converted, they are available. I'd suggest my 853RS build but the gearing is not suited to road riding. Who to do it, depends on where you are in the UK but there is a choice. Andy
