First some background,
I am swaping a 78-79 1000 motor into my 78 gs750e, the bike orginaly came with a bottom end, no cylinders or pistions, and a race motor.
I bought a 1000 motor cheep because the bearing behind the front sprocket failed. I split the case and a few of the gears have some marks and all of the gears are really dark colored.
I tore the 750 bottom end apart also and the gears from it are really nice shape. and not nearly as dark. I know the tooth count of the first three gears is different and the shaft where the sproket goes on is also shorter.
My questions are
Can I swap the whole trans over from the 750? It fits into the case great.
Will the sproket align better with the shorter shaft?
If the shaft for the sproket needs to be the longer 1000 one I can swap the 750 gears onto the 1000 shaft.
Would the 750 gearing throw off the power band of the 1000?
