Oilyspanner Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 All the oil cooled engines (not GSX1400) will bolt into your frame, earlier 1052 cc 1100, later 1127cc GSXR and GSX1100F - 1157cc bandit 1200 . The engines are the same size externally, apart from barrel height - this makes a 7/11. You can use your cylinder head on the big capacity engines for a power boost. Welcome to the world of the oil cooled Suzukis - There's more details that can be found on the search facility, owners may add some detail too - it's 4am and my bed's calling me !

Make sure your engine is a 748 though (the elusive Dothead); the year is right for it but the clutchcover is not. Quote Link to comment

You need to machine the cases too to fit the 1052 barrels, or swap the cases for 1052 items, in which case you might as well do the crank tpo as the 1052 pistons only give modest increase. You can see why most people just fit a complete 1100 engine. A 1200 bandit lump with your 750 head, cams, and carbs makes for a nice powerful motor. 1 Quote Link to comment
