could just be a kawasaki top end,
the sevens are a bit loud in the top end.

Fark Chuck how can ya go wrong???
JUST DO IT !!
Would HAVE t obe sus on the motor at that price but eh?
Compression test will help (but not if something metal is ready to break :oops: )
There was a 89 900 motor on here for a $1K the other day.
I just paid $4,5K for the (dereg) wreck of me 12 back and I am sus on its motor AND frame!!!
However it IS my baby so thats my excuse....

dude, for what its worth my old 81 cb900 dropped a bottom end, and cost $3k to fix (parts where a nightmare)....so if the motors shot to shit, ur gunna need to rebuild it urself, or find a donor... the zx10 from that era (based on a GPZ isnt it??) is a little rare...
