Going from shaft to chain

[tkent02]

Duttry, do you have a bunch of really big hammers? You're going to need them.

It's either one or the other (chain vs shaft).

OP, its too much hassle converting the shaftie to chain drive; period.

Go out and get the E model like suggested and keep/sell your current ride.

One would think, based on visual mechanics, that it would be relative straight forward swap. Eh, in the end it doesn't matter. It's a throw away bike anyway. If I can find another motor then fine. If not, it can sit in the corner of my shop. I have my '81 gs650g & '79 425e to keep me happy.

Thanks all for your info and help!!!
