I am selling Suzuki GSRX1000 K7/K8 engine parts on behalf of friend who passed away. He used GSXR motors for his hillclimb car.

1. There is a full engine that needs rebuilding and needs a new crank. It will rebuild. It had a mild knock that we caught early before other damage done. The engine is complete but we lifted the head and dropped the sump to check it.

Also other parts:

2. Dismantled cylinder head with cams and valves. Please work on the assumption that there are a couple of bent valves. (It must have been stripped down for good reason!)

3. Gearbox cluster.

4. Clutch bits ~ pressure plate, friction plates, springs etc.

5. I think that there are a set of damaged engine cases. These are handy as a jig if anyone is building a chassis because they are a lot lighter than a full engine.

Wigan area.

MUST go so make an offer. I can send photos.

Yes, Reverend Barry Whitehead sadly passed away in late May 2017. We won't see his like again.
We all miss him a lot.

(Do we know each other from Oliver's Mount Hillclimb?)

Hi Malcolm,
Yes I came with Barry to your place. I bought a 2011-spec ZX10R engine from you c. 2012.
I haven't competed for a few years but have been spurred into action. Barry's daughter Eve is now without a car of her own so she will share mine.
I'm trying to get the car finished in time for the start of the season!
Btw, I will probably be in the market for a 2nd ZX10R engine, as a spare.
Craig
