Thanks.

Are any bits salvageable at all ? You may have to look into getting a stock sporty motor and fitting some of your bits or getting it modded for some reasonable amount of performance

I live in Spain, the bike belonged to a good friend that due to helth problems was no longer able to rid eit, he took care of tie bike like if it was his son, the bike had a NRHS 12500cc engine with ported head, jagg oil cooler dyno tuned and run great but it mus thave had a rod in process of failure so after 500 miles the rod collapsed and made a hole on the crank case, so over the enxt couple of months i'll be taking the engine out and see what can be saved, but it may be better to find a full engine and loose a bit pof performance and have a bike that runs fine, after all all those up grades didnt out run a Uly with race ecm and d&d exhaust.

The bike was a really nice bike, but shit happens, and past cant be changed so looking for a future resurection of the X1 like the Phoenix bird.
