Put a ball bearing behind the large nut on the top triple tree to get the rotor off.

I mean the rotor on the left side of the engine in front of the starter clutch
The big bolt will screw into the rotor. Put a bearing on the crank snout behind the bolt and it will pull it off. Those Japs are pretty smart engineers.

i dont think the motors will swap without frame mods.
The later 82 is the better pick. stronger frame, better motor, bigger valves, and ports.
