It's funny it really is a small world.
I read that Cycle World mag when it came out and found it again a few months ago when I was moving some stuff in my extension. A few years later my friend Julian had a 750m that wasn't fast enough so I put a 1100L engine in it for him (the black and purple one).I was running a JMC framed GSXR 1100 at the time and my now ex wife was riding a GSXR 1100K/L. When she found out how good the 7/11 was I had to make another one (the blue and white one).I did make a basic error when i put them in as I left them both on the 750 gearing so they had 43 teeth rear sprockets instead of 48 (doh) that's why they a bit slow in the article theywould have been faster in 4th gear ! but was a good day at Bruntingthorpe
I came on the OSS because i'm thinking of injecting and turboing the JMC and the 7/11 when i do them up over the winter and found this thread.
