  • How much do different sized engines weigh?

    Just wondering if anyone might have stats on the different engine weights that will fit a 93 Kat 6 Frame.

    I've seen mention of adding a longer swingarm, but no talk of front or suspension. Is it that "same" setup for similar year bikes?

    My particular concern is would the suspension set-up have to be altered to accept a larger (more massive) engine?

    There is a sticky on the top of mechanics page that covers the swapping of engines. The kat 600, 750, 1100 all have same engine mountings. Also, older model GSXR engines have same frame mountings as kat.
    Is Effingham a swear word?

      They all weight about the same. Freaking heavy.

        I've owned over 70 Katanas - you think I know anything about them?
        Is there such a thing as TOO MANY BIKES?
