I am not very good at this but lets try.

As some might know I purchased a 640 Ktm tolling chassis. Basically everything except the motor.

I recently acquired a 650 Rotax motor from a crashed BMW 650 CS, the road going version of the 650 GS.

Measuring up it appears as if the motor is about 30mm to tall and about the same to long from swing arm to the frame behind the front wheel.

This will be the 1st challenge to overcome.

The 2nd will be : do I use BMW FI or will the KTM carb and CDI electronics be compatible ?

More later
