ZX600A Engine in KZ650 frame. Been done?

I think a H2 motor would go nicely into the ZX frame. There are a few who have done that.

well, you have eliminated so much surface area since it is liquid cooled I would think a larger displacement zx powerplant would fit nicely...:evil:

As soon as you put a larger displacement ZX powerplant in my garage I will use it! hehehe:woohoo:

Hmmmm....good point. I say go for it!!!On the plus side, that smaller engine in a larger frame will actually clean up the lines of the bike(except for the radiator but I assume you already have a plan for that)It will look sleeker and that is cool.The other plus side is that any engine repair requiring removal of the pan should be super easy as opposed to a KZ650. Keep us posted on this one...

This thing would look like it's hanging in there. Thats how much room there is.

There's still just one problem... JUSTIN WILL KILL ME! HAHAHA

Okay, as per our private conversation: I absolve you. If it makes more power and weighs less, and you can make it work, then go for it! Put the 650 motor in the 400 frame, then put the 400 motor on a go kart, then find an H2 motor for the ZX frame. Too bad you don't still have that ZX1000 motor sitting around, you could try that instead...

I can see it now.
