micktodd Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 As nearly finished the Gs im looking at starting a new project so question is i have a 750 slab engine i want to put in an oldskool frame ie gs,gsx i have already got a 850 shafty frame can i use that i would be looking at something like a gsx1400 type rear end so question is best frame to use any idea help would be great cheers mick Quote
wraith Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 Yes the 750 engine will go into a gs850 frame with lot's of room, the good thing with the gs850 frame is that the swing arm mounts/pivert points are wider the the chain drive frames. My last gs1000 build i did, I used a gs850 frame with a zx9r swing arm and a gsxr 5.5" rear wheel all went in with on problems and had lots of room for the chain run. the biggest thing is you will need to make up a sleeve to weld into the frame swing arm holes to match your swing arm. I welded mounting plates on the swing arm to keep it twin shock but be easy to make it single shock 1 Quote
micktodd Posted May 25, 2018 Author Posted May 25, 2018 Cheers for that wraith looks cool and will save me having to source a frame Quote
