This engine is not a very revy engine, a F1 style engine, that we found in Blackbirds or Busas but have a different appeal, in mine opinion.

Is flat six cilinder engine, with more torque then some car engines, is very smooth and very compact as all bike engine. With small mods you fit in almost every kit car.

May be you will think that I'm crazy, if I have available some bike engines in the "market" that are more revy and powerfull, why on earth should advice this engine.

Because:

1- It's different;
2- Six cilinder;
3- Flat engine with very low center of gravity;
4- You can drive off circuit profiting the torque available;
5- Smooth;
6- Possibility of very powerful not negleting the torque and mid rev. response;
7- It's a Honda

Got me thinking - how about a VTR 1000 engine. Not as smooth as a six, but an exhaust note to die for....

Hmmmmm, I like that idea.
