What about an R1 engine instead?
I know where there is one
Any of the big powerful 1000+ cc sports engines will be great fun in a kit car.

If your mate has his wits about him it's worthwhile buying a whole good bike and breaking it for spares. You'll possibly end up paying zero for the engine etc after you've flogged everything else off on ebay
