Motor on CL - in crate
This is an interesting CL ad. One of those 'ya don't see very often.
Here's the text:
" Way back in 1998, this motor was in a new Honda Super Hawk, VTR 1000F. It is a 1000cc V-twin motor.
Made from 1997 thru 2005.
This particular motor, was making some noise, and nobody at the Honda Dealer could figure out what the cause was.
So.... the good folks at America Honda said, "give 'em a new motor". They did, it was installed, and the guy rode off into the sunset.
Honda wanted the motor back, so they could determine the cause of the problem. They never called for it. Ten years later I bought it.
Twenty years have passed.... It is still in the crate. I will never use it now. So if you want to be part of this continuing saga....
just call me. Thanks, for looking. "

Yup looks like a SP engine
Probably make the money back just from the engine covers if breaking / parting it out.
Still odd his story describing the provenance and history if the seller fundamentally doesn't know what he bought.
At least it couldn't have suffered from auto CCT failure ;-)
