Engine swap
I have a complete 1981 GS1000 GL and a spare 1980 GS1000 engine. The engine in the complete bike smokes and knocks. The spare is ready to go. Is the '80 compatible with my '81 frame? Both are shaft drive.Tags: None

Should be a straight drop in replacement.http://img633.imageshack.us/img633/811/douMvs.jpg

1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)
Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)
