should i put an 800 motor in my summit?

[hondalrd]

i know a guy that has an 03 800 rotax motor it has around 3000 km on it but he just put a brand new top end in it. he pulled it out of crashed sled.
he said he will let it go for $1000.

im just wondering if the power increase would worth the trouble of putting it in and spending the money on it.

i have a 2000 summit 700 151

what do you guys think?

or maybe a wicked go cart?

Think of the blender you could make with that thing....

 

[hondalrd]

that would be a wicked fast go kart

would there be alot of power differnce between my 700 to 800

Had a 2000 700 summit and a 01 summit 800. There's big difference in power. Definately recommend getting split second porting and head on the 800. Ralph knows how to wake an 800 up. Should be electronic reverse with the 03 also.

so is it worth the mone and time to put it in?


and what all would i need to buy for that reverse?

It is a lot of work to switch over. You could probably sell your 700 and get into an 800 for very little money and still have resale value. The reverse uses a different secondary than your 700.
