Not very new guy.

Greetings. I'm the owner of 2 grinnall scorpion cars. One has the k1200s and the other has the K1300s engines. The earlier one I've owned from new, 2009. The second was a recent purchase,

Hello and welcome.

I know very little about the Scorpions. Was fitment of the BMW K engine common practice?

Awesome! Have you used them on track much? If so, car day, bike day, goose day, or special day?!

And praise be to the FSM and all his little meatballs if you can run/build one of these you better show some photos!

Thanks for the link Matt though I think that refers to the brick engine. Mind you, a 300BHP K1100RS or K1 would be interesting!

Hi and welcome to the madhouse that is EuroKClub!

The clue is in the K40 part of the designation I guess. Brian

Ah I spotted the k1200 ref at the end.. That's k40 engine yeah?

In 2008 Grinnall offered the Scorpion III with the BMW K40 engine which Grinnall claim is producing over 167 bhp (125 kW; 169 PS) at the rear wheel.

Either way: want one.
