I have a serious question

[sherron82]

Ok I'm about to purchase a engine kit. I've come to theses 3 choices, can anyone help me make the right decision?

I'm looking for power and reliability to travel to and from work. My 1st choice is the wildcat pk80 5hp ported engine plus the catclaw clutch with the whole engine kit,

2nd choice is the phantom 85 v3.

3rd is the zeda80 Dio performance kit.

I already have the stage 4 bikeberry engine but I need a little more power. It's a good engine and all and I plan on balancing the crank and also doing some port work soon. But for now I have 300 bucks to spend on one of those 3 engines. Any opinions?

The pk80 is a solid choice. Well built and runs strong

Thanks bro, I'll be going with that, I have a good head that I got with the stage 4 engine kit so I'll use that with the pk80, anymore tips?

My question is do you have a URL link of where your getting your motor from???...Not all "PK-80s" are created equal you know...lol.

Plus why do you want to use your BBR head on the PK-80???

California motor bikes, the engine only 5hp ported. And the bbr head is the big high compression one. Thought it would be better to use on the pk other than the stock one?

Which engine would be your choice of all 3

 

[sherron82]

One of these but I cant make my mind up, but so far I'm liking the California motor bikes pk80.

And the bbr head is the big high compression one.

I would call CMB about doing that kind of substitution before doing it as he reworks his product for optimum results...Don't do this before asking him.

Plus you may void any warranty you may have with it by doing this.

This is what I'm running.

Stock p85 is a great engine, loads of low end and will spin up to 12k but peak power is 9k. The power and torque curve of it makes sense for a single speed drive train: push real hard down low, rev real high for top speeds. Gotta be very careful and patient with break in.
