GSF 1200 head fit GSXR 1100M?

[Mcelroy434]

Hey guys, 

I am building up an 1127 GSXR1100M oil cooled motor, I am wanting to switch to the earlier adjustable rocker style head from the 1052 blocks rather than the shim style adjustment on this model.

I am struggling to find a head for sale in Australia, I have however found a good price on a GSF1200 Bandit head with the same adjustable fork style rockers, I just wanted to check if this head would bolt directly to the GSXR bottom end without any mods or issues, and has the same int/exh port spacing ect.

Does anybody have experience with this?

Cheers,

Ryan

Yes - the long stroke engines are universal for head fit - you'll have to swap the cam wheels and it will have 'low flow' cams but it will work. GSXR 1100 'K' and 'L'  (1127) had screw & locknut adjusters, Shims started with the 'M'

Ok thanks for that. I will be running turbo profile cams anyway. So would you suggest buying the profile cams that are advertised as fitting the bandit or the gsxr? You said there is a difference in the cam sprockets?

Can't imagine anyone will grind a 'separate' cam for turbo GSXR's or Bandits, ie. they'll be the same! Cam sprockets are removable and interchangeable due to normal cam chain in GSXR's and Hyvo type in GSF's
