Can I change the bike from an 1100L to a 1100 E ?
I'm looking at a bike an 82 1100L but I like the looks of the 1100E better. This bike got laid down so it needs a new tank, so I was wondering if I could scour the internet for 1100E body parts and just do a conversion. Is the frame different between the two models? Or would it just be a nuts and bolts conversion?Tags: None

Many members here chase the dream of "molding" their L into a G or E but I never saw the point really. Sell and buy what you want. That's 2 votes for selling the L

Just sell that shafty 1100L and start hunting up an 1100E or an 1100G
