Hee hee hee, love that it has a pull start
Most vicious lawnmower I've ever seen ;-)

Hard to see what he's done with the exhaust... 2 into 1?

Looks like an upward/rearward exhaust port, exhaust looks rather like an LC pipe - I guess its a single.

700cc single? Doubt it would be.
Searches on 700cc arctic cat show twins from what I can see.

Bloke's put a good effort into it, pity there's no ride review.
Shows what could be if the major makers had some gumption.

BRP/Rotax showed a teaser of their ETEC Ski-Doo with a gearbox as a potential bike,
- but no Canam concept to follow up with, as yet.

Arctic Cat have used/do use Suzuki,Yamaha & Kymco mills, bit that 2T is their own,
in 600/700/800cc variants, see here: http://www.snowgoercanada.com/reviews/2 ... 00-c-tech2

So, who's gonna do it on 2Ts downunder, guys..

Get a Kawasaki ZX 900 triple Jet-Ski mill & belt up a clutch & 6-speed off a GSX-R or similar?
Slot it into a KR1S 250 chassis or the the like, & let 'er rip.

Yamaha fans could use their PWC stuff too..

Or, if you win lotto, stick one of these in a Moto 2 chassis.. make a cool track bike..

( Or an even better replacement for those boring 600/4 Honda Moto 2 mills, in GPs)
