Or you could remove the oil pump and cut about 6" off the back of the motor and fabricate new rear mounts.... :shock:

I am happy with the close ratio 5 speed GS conversion but would like to go one step farther on the special I am working on.

Has anyone ever tried grafting in a GSXR 6 speed box?
Is the GS conversion a straight fit or does it need any machining

Needs some work.
Take a look at my project X posts in specials. I think I included all the detail there.
Honest baby....this is probably the cheapest bike I have ever bought!!

As far as I'm aware, Bartons did a 6 speed trans on the 380/500 water cooled bike they did for racing (Sheene spec, but he didn't ever use it due to the RG/RGV500 being done by Suzuki at a similar time), but not for the 750 - for sale anyway.
Of course others may know different! :lol:

380 had a six speed so Barton were able to start there for the watercooled motor.

They also offered a six speed for a TR750 IRC, but I hate to think what that would cost if it were available from Nova. I had one of their race 5 speeds in a CB77 race bike and it cost and arm and a leg- which explains my limp... :? :lol:
