    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

750 in a 1100 frame

I have both a 78-750 motor & a 80 gs 1100 chain drive frame & suddenly it hit me.......
Has anyone ever put this motor in this frame. I am willing to make motor mounts, so can it be done & what should I be aware of?

Anything can be done, the impossible just takes longer and costs a great deal more money. :mrgreen: Though I've not done that specific conversion, I'm in the process of yet another toy/conversion and it's a shafty...slightly more tricky due to shaft lengths, diameters, spline count and the always present output shaft offset. Chain models are a little easier but again, the offset will come into play. My guess is that this would be a fairly simple conversion, though I would expect a spacer or two may need to be machined.

You can look forward to a few of these ](*,) and some of this :confused: .

Good Luck...
 
it will go right in there though it is normaly done the other way around.

there are a few 7/11's around, moto-dan here has one, a 750 with a 1100 engine in it.
pretty straight foward, you do have to make some adjustemts for the engine mounts but it is not very hard.

the wiring will be differant as the 80 is a electronic ignition.
 
The only problem will be the insurance will want to insure it as a 1100+
otherwise I would think it to be an easy swap

what the insurance people don't know won't ever hurt them!!!

PS: I pay the same for my 80 1000G and my 83 1100E
