    Cyliner head swap question

    Was wondering if a cylinder head from a 81 gs650l would fit a 81 gs650g? I've got a few broken header bolts in my 650g and I'm just preparing for the worst case scenario. Thanks

    They're both shaft drive; the engines are identical.

    Please provide details. The GSR Hive Mind is nearly omniscient, but not yet clairvoyant.

      There was a 16 bolt and 17 bolt valve cover change made in late 1982. I've gotten the 16 bolt gaskets to work on a 17 bolt cover.
      You might need the valve cover that came with the replacement head.
