OK, this is just a quickie as I am just on my way out for a weekend of fun an a powerboat (yep, we really are petrol heads around here

)
We have been holding off a bit until we could get the kit together for the US market cars as some modification has obviously been required.
The 451 kit is actually together now and uses the engine from the later GSXR1000's (2005 - current) tbh these motors are better than the busa as they are far more modern, even the new 1350 busa is really a 10 year old design now.
We have had a lot of interest in people wanting to become distributors and manufacturing partners but Paul has been really busy lately with a conversion on a roadster (his own car) and that should emerge in the next few weeks. We are thinking of selling the rights to Smartuki outright for the US market and if anyone is truly serious in buying a ready made business opportunity then drop us a line from the 'contact us' link on the left.
If anyone wants a kit in the US this can now be supplied from the UK for the old or new version of the smart and currently there is a 6 week delivery time. Obviously the value of the dollar means that kit prices have dropped for you guys.
