I love this sort of thing. Sleepers and Frankensteins are awesome. Also low insurance costs. Also 50+hp in a 380lb, ultra-nible bike would be an absolute scream.
Hell, just knowing that it's possible/easy to do means I might end up doing a swap myself, especially if the fairings will still cover my ugly welds
