    GS 1000 Engine year identification help

    Trying to ID engine year.
    Has a bolt, in front of the cam chain gallery (M6 probably) bolts head to barrel.
    Does this mean anything?
    Thanks

        Any GS1000 head will bolt on. Whether it's got the extra front bolt or not. Quite Ok to mix and match.
