I recently bought an FZ6s1 in nice shape but with a lot of mileage on it. I'd like to have the bike a long time and came across someone selling an s2 engine with very low mileage (and also a colour I prefer :rolleyes: )

Does anyone know how much of a headache or even possibility there is swapping an S2 engine into an S1 model?

I don't know anything about working on the bike yet but would be interested in the opportunity to do the swap or pay a local guy (expensive?) to do it down the line, future-proof my engine situation a little maybe

Thanks

Off the top of my head They should be the same except there may be some difference in the bottom pan as I think [MENTION=15974]FinalImpact[/MENTION] had experience with related to the exhaust. :)

Thanks Cliff.
Yes, the oil pans are different and would need swapped. The S1 header will hit the S2 oil pan. Beyond that you are set.
