RF400 into a GSXR400

[owner]

Well I now own two Bikes that dont go:rockon: ...& two that do. I just brought a crashed RF400 K712 and going to attempt to put the motor, carbs, cdi and maybe the gearbox into my GSXR gk76a K709 Does any body have clue on this mission?ie has it been done before? Cause I got no Idea. Looking foward to 1000 hours of skinning knuckles and swearing though:yes:

Basically the same motor, aren't they. Some of the RF's are Vtec, but that shouldn't be a worry.

Could I buy the frame, brakes and any other parts from the donor RF?

The motor doesn't just simply drop in owner. Youll need different engine mounts I think

Gixxer4ever might have access to a (near) complete GXSR400 engine. Give him a shout.

Sorry to revive an old topic

I just bought an RF400 and I need a restrictor kit for it over in the UK. However, they don't make one. Could you confirm that the carbs on the RF400 are the same as the GSXR400? That way I could buy the GSXR400 kit and have it fit my RF

Thanks :)

RF400 used 32mm Mikuni carbs.
GSXR400 used 27mm Mikunis.


Doesn't sound the same to me...
