            Even if it is possible i think sourcing the engine will be the biggest issue

              As far as I can remember, that was a RD fitted with FZ headlamps, tires etc. and not a FZ with RD engine. But maybe you're talking about something else. I wanna see it anyway.

                Actually sourcing a 'good' engine is an issue... I was assuming that he already has one!

                    Bad Idea in my opinion. The modern FZ chasis is not designed for a heay weight champion.

                      Its possible one guy in hyderabad has done it on his FZ, very neat work, there is a thread in RDD about that bike.
