If your gonna mod, mod an 850.
 

They're the most amazing car once you have them running to their top potential.

Anyone with me on that? :)

+1 on that! You just have to get them to that level and then maintain..... BTW, nice red R.

You can say that again haha, countless bills. But once the big works done, that beast is gonna run for a lifetime.

Thanks =) I'm really diggin my new ride

Yes I agree that is one of the main reasons I got mine. Also I am a manual trans guy that's why I converted mine as well.

Hello Tech,

I just got a 1996 Red 850R. I have collected almost everything to convert it to a manual except for the clutch. I don't know a good place to get a good, inexpensive R clutch kit. Any suggestion? Thanks.

Just go to FCP and get the sach's clutch kit. There's a code on here for free shipping and ten percent off too.

Actually
15% off until Monday

Agreed just go to FCP and get the regular one.
I estimate about 280HP at the motor and clutch is holding up great.

I was not going to spend another $200.00 just for the R clutch either.

Well, actually DW sells the R clutch for the 200 shipped. However, they do business strictly by phone and I don't know their number or anything.
