A question for Blowerbike, Stetracer and anyone else that has actually done this

[Guest]

Will the 750 models live happily with the 1000 oil pump gears?
I realize that the volume/pressure may drop a little but as the 750's were over-built...
TIA for personally experienced replies.

Do NOT do it to a second gen 750!!!

110% agree....the 80-82 are insert bearing time bombs anyways.
the kicker bikes will live on near no oil but...
suzuki changed the pump gear ratio's for a reason, the reason being that the kicker bikes have a different(slower)ratio primary gears so the basket turns slower.
hence the need to speed the oil pump up.

Perhaps I was not clear enough with my request. I want to know if the first generation/roller bearing engines will live a long/happy life with the first generation 1000 pump gears/ratio so that I may steal the 750 parts for another engine.

i have only gutted these engine for there internals....
as far as lowering the oil pressure/volume in gen 1 750's..i have no clue if any damage would a cure.

"Perhaps Terry wasn't clear enough in his answer!" The 750 got different oil pump gears to make up for slowing the clutch hub down with a 99 tooth gear. If you want to slow the pump down go ahead. If you have a failure please let everyone know so no one else will do something stupid!
