I would love your K2 but, by the time i get it transported and the bits it needs it is not worth it. You would get more by breaking it. But that would be a shame.

Its not getting broken, thats for sure, not by me anyway-I know the costs mount up, I've done it with the laverda, but it could be someones pride and joy--wouldnt take much to get it legal now--hmmm!

they would be turbines then eh, not engines!. I've worked on them, few and far between now, very ineficient compared to modern diesels

I did see a definition that anything producing power was an engine, and if you take the down time/repair costs in the whole life costs are similar, or at least they were when i was at sea
