A water pumper WILL NOT fit in an oil cooled frame. Remember that!

Yep, its possible, but I´m so sentimental than surely dont do that... And replace a engine is funniest!!!Originally posted by SweetLou
And for the 92 gixxer, she is water cooled, isnt? I would buy the whole bike and use it as she come, and I would wait for better times and a Bandit 1200 engine...

No Mas the 1992 GSXR is still an oil cooled engine here in the U.S. You will be able to tell if it is oil or water cooled just by looking at it. Good luck!Comment

Umm, here in Spain, the 1992 model was the first one water cooled. and I have search here and says that 1992 was the first water cooled year.Originally posted by Mr. Clean
However, I have buyght the low sided Katana with 34000km,. Ower is asking 600 euros, and I have found in a few yunkyards only the engine at the same price, so I have decided bought it. My dude gonna try start it next monday, get it carburated, maybe new plugs and then I will replace the whole engine, with carbs and exhaust. If it starts... [/url]

Hey Mas sorry to hear dude.
At this very moment I'm looking at a 750 engine with less than 15K on the odometer (complete with carbs etc.) on Ebay.de starting bid is 800 euro direct buy is a grant.
Looks fabulous.
Just one problem the seller doesn't want to ship, so if you would like to have it I could go to him, check the engine thoroughly (according to the powerseller it's absolutely in mint condition) and ship it to you.
If you would like the idea I have to inquire about shipment-costs and you should have a Paypal account. (I'm thrustworthy, you are thrustworthy I know, but....)
Just let me know man!Comment

But I have decided to buy the wrecked bike. Brand new exhaust system, and a lot of extra parts. But in a future, I would search for another engine and make the wrecked one a track bike. But I need more $$$$$$$$$$$

Great to hear Mas, however it would have been a nice excuse for me to do some speeding on the German highways

Updated NEWS!
Hi, I have fnally bought the wrecked kat, but there is a few problems...
First, she has 63600 km and not 36000!!!! LOL!! and she had a big impact in the right side, but engine isnt damage. Forks look straigh, and same with swingarm, rims and tires are new, but are Michelin Macadams.
Gauges are in better shape than mine, and only have one passenger peg!
Exhaust system has a big dent, but sounds nice, maybe I put it, sounds way better than mine!
And the best is that she started at first attemp!! Sounds nice, rev nice, so I think that at least she would last me 10-15000 km more, and then... GIXXER 1000!!! (If I win the lotto, lol!)
Well, tomorrow afternon I will start stripping both... Wish me luck!
