I don’t know why, but that is really rather interesting...!

I thought it was different. More useful offroad than a heavier, 1100 bike

"They" claim the 350cc engine was ditched in favor of a 750. What is pictured looks to be a V35 engine. They also claim only 30 hp. Confirming engine size?
Will a 750 swing arm bolt up to a V35 engine?  R3~

Yeah, might be a bit on the small side but I just thought it was worth a second glance.

I think this is the V7 engine, but with old style smallblock valve covers installed.

I think they used a Nevada engine.  That would explain the 35hp rating and is probably accurate at the wheel.  I like that they went the opposite way of most hacks and they removed the carbs and installed a simple EFI system.

But it plainly shows carburetors in the photos.

From the article : They took off the modern electronic fuel injection system, instead mounting easy-to-maintain carburetors and adding a simple electronic injection system.
A better idea. JMO

Right after I commented, he edited the article! Still a bit off though: adding a simple electronic injection system - I think he means a simple electronic ignition system.

I like it that way. Carbs, probably Dyna ign.

Very nice build.  I like the attention to detail and not leaving all stripped looking like some builds.
