oilcooled motor info

[rodneya]

1127 motor from a 1991 Katana 1100. Is this motor the same as the older gsxr 1127 motors? I cant seem to find any useful info anywhere.

Well, you've fell into the first OSS trap, by calling a gsx1100f powerscreen a katana  bad boy 

The answer to you're question, is basically no there not the same. Different clutch, crank driver gear and more.

I thought I had seen a list of parts that will interchange between different oilcooled motors, but I can find it now. specifically engine covers between B6, B12 and 1127 motors.

Parts numbers are not really helpful as some have different numbers, but use the same gaskets.

If we're talking engine side covers, part number differences can be down to :

- paint colour of said part, for the ignition sender and flywheel

- engine oil capacity moulded in the clutch cover

That doesn't mean they won't interchange.

More specifically, the sprocket cover has many versions (cable or hydro, speedo sensor or not) but thats an obvious giveaway

Generally speaking, anything post slabside generation engine can interchange.
