  1. Musing about Monsters (early ones) and larger engines, I wondered if anyone on the forum has had the engine cases of a Multisrada 1000/1100 machined to support a dual sided swingarm frame.
     
  2. Why not just get a 1000ds motor from an SSIE that is DSSA?

  3. Largely driven by cost and availability, you can find a fair few Ugly Duckling MS around, not so many M1000DS

  4. Thanks for the kind offer :) I am looking for a project myself and the MS1000 engines are a lot more reasonable than the M1000DS. So I was thinking if I could pick up a cheap Multi Strada that would be the start of the odyssey - though a non starter if the cases couldn't be made to work in a dual sided frame. I've contacted Jan Vogt
     
  5. How about a SSSA monster like s2, s4 and stick the lump in that?
     
  6. Although the s4 has 916/996 (not sure which) anyway
     
  7. Yes, the S4 is 916 based I think, with it water cooling and four valves. Being acutely aware of my limitations, I thought I’d keep to the two valves I know best. I think the S2 will again fall into the ‘How Much!!!’ bracket - I’m from the north.

  8. Maybe as a donor? Or get frame and swingarm and add multi parts from a donor?

  9. A 900 with an 1100 Evo engine would be nice! :)
