Hacri Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Anyone done this swap? Pro and cons My 1135 will not run good, and have a complete 1100F (no papers), and it runs goood. Quote Link to comment
Gixer1460 Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Er - only a few thousand times . . . . . probably LOL! More modern engine although getting on for 30+ years old, looks lost in the AC frame, needs bigger oil cooler, carbs will be equally bad to set-up with age, more powerful generally although less torque, likes a smaller gauge chain, hardcore oldskoolers will either hate it or love it!

Captain Chaos Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 one I did earlier and one I did more recently (although there's almost nothing left of the EFE frame ) 5 Quote Link to comment
RevinKevin Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I had an efe for about 13 years..loved it..it eventually died and I picked up a cheap 1100F..it was ok..fast but dull as dirty dishwater.The power delivery of the air cooled 1135 is far superior and way more fun ..I swapped the 1100F for a BSA500 A7 and now have another efe. Get the efe engine fixed, it will be worth it 3 Quote Link to comment
stockcar Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 My thoughts also........if you want oil then keep it in the later frame...... Quote Link to comment
