1991 GS500E need some help

[Anonymous]

I have a 1991 GS500E in a little bad shape it is missing the Cylinder and Cylinder heads.

Question is how hard would it be to find those parts and get it going or would it be more worth my while to find a replacement engine that is working and just swap.

Also will a different engine work in there or does it have to be the same.


Thanks in advance

I think you are much better off finding a complete engine from a salvage yard. You can probably find a good low mile engine from a totaled bike and you may get some sort of warranty too. Check the website called www.findmypart.com, they're linked up to salvage yards all over the country. I would stick with the same size engine, anything else that would fit is smaller.

ditto on the used motor route, you could probaly find a whole parts bike arent they cheap to buy used?
