Has anyone seen or building a fwd bike engine nova?
I have seen a kit using a r1 engine in a mini so am in the process of collecting up all the parts I need to do something similar.
Wondering if anyone else has had this idea?

Id be looking at auto grass stuff pal I know they are rwd but the set up will work pritty much the same in the front .
You would need some kind of diff set up with a sprocket mounted onto the ring of bolt around the edge

Not a lot of help to you, but many years ago I bought a Nova with a 900cc Fireblade motor in the front, which was built as front drive.

It was an unfinished project so I never got a go in it.

Already got the diff it’s a F20 with a custom housing to hold a 10x10 sprocket. So that’s the hard part.
Making a frame to hold the engine next, want the use the original engine mounting point as I don’t want to chop my nova around.
