    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...

Hi All,

My 1980 gs750et runs great! You all helped me to get it there! Thanks!
I've been running 6-7k and it pulls but i think i would like to increase the cc's.

I know my model year was a 750 and an 1100. Can i get jugs, rings and pistons to upsize my motor? Also, i runn bs32 carbs and the 1100 runs 34's. Can you rejet the 32's to do closr to stock 34's with rejetting?

Is it mega bucks to do? If so, will keep it stock.

All suggestions welcome.

thx, kurtj
 
I am gunna watch this thread, I have been wondering the samething, and have done alittle searching.

I am wanting a reason to blow up, or change my engine......750 getting alittle boring now, and I am runnning it to the board more often to cure my need for speed

Your better option is to find an 1100 motor and put it in that frame. The 1100 motor was a FAR FAR superior design IMO. Roller bearing crank,(your 750 is plain bearing) if you can get a hold of an 83 model, it was pin welded, super strong. Low pressure oiling system, TSCC head, the 83 1100 cams were super hot for a stock set up...(i think i was told they are around a 293 grind? something like that...) Crap load of torque, AWESOME top end rush, and just as bulletproof as the old 8v GS motors... the best part? With the right, readily available frame mounts, it will fit RIGHT IN your 750 frame (the 80-82 750 and 1100 shared the frame, with some differences between the two) Get a motor and a set of carbs....Im not even sure its possible to swap the heads and jugs anyway...
 
The heads WILL swap but the airflow is all wrong for a 750 cc motor. The blocks will swap because the bore & stud spacing is the same but WON'T work because the stroke is different. Just put an 1100 motor in your frame. Ray.
