    82 gsx750e

    An 82 GSX750E has come on the market locally. it has done 30,000 klm's, not Miles. Could i have opinions on what is or isn't good about these models.

    Been reading that these had some trouble with crank bearings if not looked after properly. Also the exhaust cam is prone to wear and it is a matter of when.

    There is also an 82 Katana, a motor and frame, that is included in the sale.

    Question; can the katana cams be swapped into the GSX750E, or will the motor swap into the GSX frame.

    Cheers
