Title: Engine Information?
Post by: STS on October 20, 2003, 10:10:59 PM
Hello all, Im new to the board and just need some information about the 500.
First, What are its dimensions(LxWxH not Bore x Stroke)?
and Second, at what points does it mount to the frame?
Anyone have some close up pics or a diagram?
Thanks in advance.

Hey welcome to the board.

I don't have the info at hand.  I'm at work still.

If no one has jumped in, I'll check when I get home in my manual.

It's here on the board somewhere I'm sure.

If you're thinking of fitting another motor into the GS, Srinath and a few others have some information regarding this.

The GS's specs are on the front page of this site. (ha ha beat ya to it John!)

You can see exploded diagrams of the GS parts on www.bikebandit.com.

STS,

I'll take some photos and measurments in the morning and email them to you, if you still need them.

I have a few (cough, cough) motors laying around.
