You will have to fabricate new engine mounts.Ed
To measure is to know.

If you are taking a gsxr engine out of a GS frame and putting in a GS engine then all you need is the factory mount plates. Typically the gsxr install into a GS fram is fabricated plates, usually no frame mods to the mounting areas.
What GS model frame and year did you remove the gsxr engine from?1978 Gs1085 compliments of Popy Yosh, Bandit 1200 wheels and front end, VM33 Smoothbores, Yosh exhaust, braced frame, ported polished head :cool:
1983 Gs1100ESD, rebuild finished! Body paintwork happening winter 2017:D
I would rather trust my bike to a technician that reads the service manual than some backyardigan that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix things.
