GS 1100 cilinders on 1000 crankcases??

Hello, fella's

I've posted this already in the tech section without results.
So is it possible or not and what is involved: reboring the crankcases to accept the 1100 sleeves or whatever?
Bye there....

Why not do a 1085 cc overbore job with some new Wiseco pistons? You'd get the same displacement as a GS 1100.

Well I thought about it, but I just found someone whou is parting out a gs 1100 and that will come cheaper than the Wiseco job.

Not to pile on, but in the same vein, out of curiosity. Can one "bolt" on 16 valve pistons,cylinders, and a head from say a GS1100E (16valve ) on a GS1100G (8 valve)crankcase?

NO. There are significant differences in the bolt pattern. if you want a 16 valve shaftie, look for an early nineties GSX1100G.

16 valve blocks will not fit on 8 valve cases. However, with a little work, the entire 16 valve motor will go into the 1000 frame.
