Oil cooled engine into GS1000 frame problem


Recommended Posts

The problem is my engine just doesn't seem to fit. Its an unmodified GS1000 frame and a stock-ish GSXR1100k engine, I have the 1100k, gs1000 and the 'kit' brackets from Eblag and none of them are working for me. 
The issues are on the left side of the frame, the engine is sitting on/against the side stand bracket where it comes inside the frame and on the bottom engine mount which are stopping the engine from sitting low enough to fit any engine brackets. So how does an oil cooled engine fit into a GS frame? Project build coming shortly.

To get the front close to the engine plates the bottom mount sits just where the left side main oil casting is, forcing the engine up, and the side stand mount is pushing the engine hard to the right so looks like they both have to get the chop, best get the engine out and fire up the grinder.
