Everyone in the world with the exception of Harley/Muscle car guys uses CC/Liters in regards to engine size. I listed the 9.4 Liters as a frame of reference for us sportbike guys who can count above 500.

It's just the tail shaft housing that breaks, fricking aluminum. So, the solution is solid engine and trans mounts, beefed up cast iron tail shaft housing, along with milling the drive shaft down 1/4". Hopefully it doesn't tweak the frame. I'm thinking of reinforcing the frame at some point, maybe when I get stickier tires.
