Pretty much any 600 or 750 Kat motor, gsxr oil cooled motors, bandit oil cooled motors will fit right in with very minimal additional work if any. Some of of the 1100/1200 oil cooled motors as well, with some minimal mods.
I recently swapped a 600 post engine into a pre... only needed to swap the alternator and carb boots between them to make it fit right in.

Motor swap
Is there a certain year motor that you would recommend? Also, I have looked at some newer motors and it looks like the oil lines are in a different location. Will this be a problem during the swap? Will the electronics on a newer motor plug in as well ? Thanks!!

OK, probably a silly question but... Why change the instrument cluster? You're not swapping forks/wheels so you'll still have you speedo drive cable and a tach is a tach is a tach. Just swap the wiring connector coming from the harness to match your pre cluster. If you want the electronic speedo then the post engine has the speed sensor for it but I wouldn't think the instrument cluster is a have-to-have item at all. Take your pick or just live with the pre cluster until you get around to swapping it out.

Why would you put a 600 in to replace a 750? What part of Texas are you from? If all goes well this weekend I should have a complete 04 750 set up for sale within the next few weeks to month. I don't know how soon you are needing the engine....'04 Katana 1200 - B12 swap, Holeshot Stage 2 jet kit, 2 bros carbon fiber slip on cut down, 5 deg timing advance, Bandit 1200 rear wheel/180 tire w/ modified swingarm.

ROB845,

Tyler is a small haul from Houston. Do you currently have your old alternator? I don't have a set price as of yet because I was waiting to pick up the new setup before I really worried about pricing and selling. But, minus the few parts I will need for the swap I will have everything from the carbs to the muffler for sale...'04 Katana 1200 - B12 swap, Holeshot Stage 2 jet kit, 2 bros carbon fiber slip on cut down, 5 deg timing advance, Bandit 1200 rear wheel/180 tire w/ modified swingarm.

Yes i have the alternator and carbs off my original motor. My bike is complete, so basically i just need the motor. I would definitely be interested in your motor if the price is right.. I'm workin on a budget like everybody else.. Do you know if i would need to change any of my wiring to match your motor ? I think my carbs should work as well, but I'm not sure ? Your motor is a 750f right ? oil cooled ? Thank you !!
