    will Katana 493 Rods work in a gs1000

    any one know? i can't recall at the moment does the gs1000 use 18mm wrist pins or 17mm? would these rods work with a gs1000 crank?

    No, they won't. The rods are sized differently on the 2 valve motors. Ray.

      Actually, they can be MADE to work, but not without some machining. Ray.
