What Makes Our R1 Conversion Kit Stand Out?

Our R1 Conversion Kit has been meticulously designed to ensure a seamless integration with your Mini. The kit includes an R1 engine cradle that mounts onto the original engine mountings in the Mini subframe, requiring minimal modifications to your vehicle.

The conversion kit also includes a custom-made stainless steel exhaust manifold that connects to a 2" performance Mini exhaust system, delivering an impressive sound to match the increased power.

The Yamaha R1 engine used in this conversion produces approximately 145 to 164bhp @10,000rpm (depending on the engine year), providing a significant performance boost for your Mini.

Let us help you convert your Mini into a powerhouse!

 Easy Installation and Versatility

One of the key advantages of our R1 Conversion Kit is its ease of installation. The modifications required are so minimal that you don't even need to remove the subframe from the car. This also means that it's easy to switch back and forth between the 'A' series and R1 engines, giving you the flexibility to adapt your Mini to different driving conditions or events.


Quality You Can Trust

At Mini Sport, we've been in the motorsport industry since 1967, and we bring our extensive experience and passion for Minis to every product we offer. Our R1 Conversion Kit is no exception. Every component is manufactured to the highest standards, ensuring reliability and performance.


Ready to Transform Your Mini?

To complete the conversion, you'll need our kit, a classic Mini, a Yamaha R1 engine, Yamaha engine wiring loom & ECU, fuel pump, air filter, Yamaha clutch cable, and a gear change system. We also strongly recommend upgrading the brakes and suspension to handle the increased power.

Our R1 Conversion Kit is available for you to install at your leisure, or our experienced engineers can carry out the conversion for you. We offer a range of options to suit your needs and budget.

Experience the thrill of driving a Mini with the power and performance of a Yamaha R1 engine. Choose our R1 Motorbike Conversion Kit and unleash the beast in your classic Mini. Contact us today to learn more.
