Anything is possible with enough money. Is it worth it? No.

Yeah, I wouldn't attempt that, the r6 motor is going to be a stress-member design and the fzr has a full frame, so there would be no where to attach the bottom mounts, also it will probably be a real bitch getting the sprockets to line up. Did you find the motor cheap? Wondering why you wouldn't just get an fzr motor and slap it in.
