Engine replacement
« on: January 17, 2012, 10:52:57 AM »
Quick question for those that know these bikes the best....are all the engines interchangeable?  Can you put a 1994 engine in a 1986 Concours?

Thanks!

Sounds like a Winter project to me. Get a lift table from JCW and you are almost good to go.
Good luck, and when you get her together,
ride safe.

Shouldn't you be rubbing two sticks together or something for more heat? :hitfan:
