Hi,

New to FZR online

I have a speedway sidecar with a 1988 fzr1000 motor in it, we are currently re building the bike and trying to find a starter motor to fit the bike as the original is about 5-10mm to long to fit in the bikes frame.
Probably a long shot.. but does anyone know if a smaller sized fzr ( fzr600 ect ) starter motor will fit in the fzr1000 motor.. As long as the cog fits in and operates it will be fine, we can make mounts/brackets to suit.
I have had a good look around on the internet but cant seem to find an answer..


thanks in advance

The motors fix via horizontal bolts on the 1000s and vertical bolts on the 400/600s.

I doubt the end caps could be swapped even if the bodies were shorter.
The 400 and 600 are the same length and fitting but the 600 is a greater diameter.
