YAM engines / 4TV / Thundercat `96-`98

A mate of mine in Germany has been building a 600 thundercat race bike, and in the process has collected a few spare motors. Speaking with him yesterday he tells me that he has a few to sell, shipping on a palette is possible. All are from street bikes he has picked up.
