Hi all,

I heard somewhere that production of the Suzuki engined 160 had ceased - does anyone have any definite information on this? Gutted if true - was seriously considering an order this year!

‘If’ it is replaced, I think a bike engine misses the point!
The popularity seems to be based on its retro appeal and its achievable handling limits!

Assuming the back axle is still available, any small 3 pot less than 100bhp would do the trick. There was talk of a Renault engine at one point before the Suzuki version appeared...
