kermit Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I have a gsx1100 motor and a gsxr1100w frame... Anybody knows if it fit.... Quote Link to comment
Swirl Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 One way to find out, lay the motor on its side and place the frame over it Quote Link to comment
kermit Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 I know but I can't get to the motor for a while so just thought maybe some one had tried it before.... Quote Link to comment

I have seen a gsx in slabbie frame, it was only lightly modified, and I think the back of the cases were ground down a bit, to get it in. It may have been a 750 frame, as they're a bit longer in the engine bay believe it or not. Either way the W frames are shorter still, so you won't fit the gsx motor with out doing something ugly.

kermit Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 Okay.... that's probably why I couldn't find anyone who have done it.... Quote Link to comment

Mark Watkins "there's that name again " Put a GSX Motor in a slabbie frame many moons ago for drag racing...It was for sale again recently but it has an Oil Boiler back in it now....
