Dune buggy with Yamaha R1-1000 Motor

[@AudioWastelandStudio]

thanks for all the music over the beautiful r1 engine sound...

[@AndrewSosa]

I'm currently building a mini dune buggy with a 2005 r1 engine I got for $450 with tons of extras. The frame I'm using is a heavily modified Murray Gokart frame... Let's just say total weight should be under 500 pounds all said and done.

Nice that’s going to be scary fast that’s the same your motor we have

[@700chavo]

Roughly how much have you spent to build such dune buggy?, I want to build one since they look lots of fun, I currently have 10k to play with but done know nothing much about fabrication let alone putting a r1 engine on a “sand rail” 😂

[@1800lopezify]

Sick, currently trying to figure out how to do this with my 08 Joyner buggy and a 750gsxr engine

[@jordanmercredi3740]

Wonder if you could set up 2 1000cc engines side by side lpl

[@horacegray2417]

Damn that thing rips and look sweet. What size sprocket are you running and tire size?

[@rafaelfaria1532]

top!! what is the name of this buggy ?? where do i find the project? I wanted to make one too.

[@HyperZCar]

I have two king cars and know the sound of these engines very well running on all 4 or 3 with a bad plug. Put new plugs in it. . Sounds like it's missing on one cylinder to me. It has tons of power with 3 so it kind of fools you but with all 4 they rip.

[@clintkinyon6296]

Definitely worth taking a look into thank you

[@cjct86]

What did you get thr axles out of in the rear?

[@chikoloko135]

Is that a crossplane r1? sounds like one

[@stickyicky2858]

Believe he said in another comment it's a 2005

[@5thgearpinned450]

Where did you buy the rear axles with the sprocket set up

[@Richdog51]

It’s all custom made from a quad rear end I think your best bet for finding one search short cars there’s a couple buggy shops out there

[@theirishaxe9405]

Looking sweet bro 👍

[@williamellingsworth6736]

I have a short sand car with a r1 that I'm redoing alot of the old setup how did u set up the shifter

[@Richdog51]

William Ellingsworth used a B&M shifter cable or aka push pull cable

[@adriHomeandAuto]

Do you have reverse?

[@Richdog51]

no... lol

[@montecrawford1502]

Get rid of the music, also drop some of the spring preload.
