Yes it is and it wasnt too much of a deal to put in. Ken plans on fabing up some mounts for the top rear and front as you can see from the pics.  We had a pretty good time the other night. Of course you cant have a good time withoout Srinath  :thumb:

Numberless wonder is spoken for ... may slap the bottom end I have under the top end I am going to get though ... why ??? and more than likely I have 99% of another top end in a few crates, BTW ... GR motor ... needs more fabbing than Ken will admit.
IMHO ... yea motor mounts 1-2 inch gap is easy to work with ... but the biggie is the top. T brace gotta go and become removable and of course GS head swap is a must IMHO.
Its gotta look and work like it was made for it. OK OK close enough.
The mad trash continued through this morning ...  :icon_mrgreen:
Cool.
Srinath.

I like the idea of a removable cross brace.  :thumb:

I need to get back to finishing my 92 so I can start on the GR w/ GSXR 4-valve head.
Interesting to see what I am going to run into fitting the GR motor.

I'm interested in the GSXR head on a GS motor.It's gotta flow better than a modified stock head.

I had them GR engines for 4 yrs or so and never tried to install them.

Diaz and i installed it in 15-20 min and moved it once or twice to get the mounts figured out.

BUDDA is talking out his ass again...
two small brackets on top rear
front mount can easily be fabbed in less than 30 min
lower one thru the engine....skip it

budda wants to remove the brace so he can do a valve adjustment
easier to pull the engine and do the valve adjustment than remove a brace


Also Srinath said the 650 test engine with no history  is for sale also

Yea yea whatever ... cut the frame T brace is what I said ... the rest - pot-ato pota-to

No its not ... no 650 for sale ... remember that part ken where there is a nut on the countershaft ... that is the look of ??? you guessed it ... not for sale.

Cool.
Srinath.
