D which Honda V4 do you speak of? VFR 1000 motors weigh very close to 200lbs complete, by comparison a raced prepped A12-A15 is 185-200lbs. The VFR power outputs vary between 115-150hp. Although this is a moot point as he has to use a Nissan motor
OK you can yell at me for being a pedant but the 1200 has a 90" wheelbase.
My pick would be a 1200 as it's likely easier to find all the goodies for it. (If that's not correct than its down to whichever one you like.
The lower weight 1000 has it s appeal but if you build a 1200 carefully you can keep the weight way down. I didn't do this as I bought goodies based on what could be had cheap, my cars a porker at 740kg.
