Engine Swap
I have 2002 GL1800. Starting to get the dreaded ghost shifting in 5th gear. Bike has 106,000 miles. Considering an engine swap to a low mileage one. Question, will any year 1800 engine fit in my 2002? Will an engine from an F6B fit?

Re: Engine Swap
Any year up to 2017 should work fine. The F6B would as well but I think you would lose reverse. It's the same with the 1500's. A Valkyrie engine works but no reverse

Be careful ... the used engine market is littered with transmission problems.
