what motor do I have in thei chopper
« on: February 10, 2019, 08:35:36 pm »
man, talk about confused. can anyone decipher my motor serial number? I believe I was misinformed by the PO. the engine # Looks like RO08E-2011296    inline 4 cyl. 650 or 750 I really don't know. PO said 650 dominator but Looked that up and that appears to be a single cyl??    I'm embarrassed not knowing what I've bought Its a rat chopper with Heinze 57 parts. Thanks

Post a pic , or compare your motor to pictures of cb 750, cb 650 etc.
 Is it a single cam ?

Are you sure it's not RC08E... That would be a 1982 CB650SC Nighthawk engine

Yes, that would probably be a RC08. Couldn't clearly make out 2nd letter, thought maybe o or a 6 but now I'm sure you nailed it. Thanks  you guys are a huge help
