cb900 cylinder on cb 750 engine

theo305
Hello guys
I need some help here.
I am trying to fit a cb900dohc cylinder pistons and rods on a 750 dohc.
I don't have the 900 crank.
Today I have mesurued rods pistons etc and find 2.5mm lowest stroke difference.
I don't care if I don't get full power of 900 because anyway my 750s cylinder and pistons are destroyed and I already have the 900 parts.
Should be any problem with this?
Also what about the long cam chain length?
Thank you.

The cylinder, and head will go onto your crankcase, however the 750 has a stroke of 62mm, and the 900 64.5 mm. So the only way it will work, is to use the 900 crank, or have special pistons made.

No, no difference. It is the stroke of the crank that makes the difference.

I do not know about the "RCO1, RCO4" designations, but all DOHC engines from 79 to 82 are the same, and 82 to 86 Nighthawk are the same.
