|  Gz250 Was wondering, does anyone know if the GZ250 engine will fit easily enough into the GZ125 frame? Need something a bit faster, but am quite broke. If so, does anyone know of any breakers i can get one from at a fairly reasonable price? |

| I looked at a photo of a GZ125 and it looks the same as a GZ250 but the frame may be a little smaller and I have no way of finding the dimensions. Time and money spent on a 250 engine w/shipping, installation,PROBLEMS, etc you may be better off finding a used 250 motorcycle

| The GZ150 never made it to this side of the pond, so I don't have mucrofiche for it. You could probably call a dealer and ask them if the frames are the same- they probably are, just like the Intruder VS400, VS600, VS700, VS750, and VS800 all use the same frame. However, this motor swap is only going to gain you 7 horsepower, hardly worth the effort and expense. I'd just buy a bigger bike and sell or part out the old one.
