Title: Head conversion
Post by: sprint_9 on April 18, 2005, 10:16:33 PM
Does anyone know if a 95 Katana 750 head will work for the head swap like an 89 GSXR head does?

That was the short stroke 750 (AKA the 748 I believe from an 88 GSXR 750) perfect fit ... or fine same dealio as the GSXR 750. odd thing about that 750 Kat ... the 600 Kat was smooth and had good power everywhere and was very rideable ... the 750 exact opposite ... nothing till 9K and then all of a sudden it was a monster till 11K ... 600Kat was pretty popular, 750 Kat very un popular ... even though it weighed/looked the same etc ...
Cool.
Srinath.

Not sure what year Bob has but he has a Kat head that he is modding. The Kat valves are slightly smaller.
