Author Message   Wrecker Posted on Saturday, March 29, 2008 - 05:24 am:        Anyone know how much trouble it would be to put a 99 X1 engine into a 98 S1 roller?   Phat_j Posted on Saturday, March 29, 2008 - 06:53 am:        just like putting an s1 engin back in there.. no trouble at all   Wrecker Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 05:29 am:        Thanks.   Classicbuells Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 10:03 am:        If you're going to use the S1 ignition system, you need to change the ignition timing rotor for the S1 type from the X1 type, IIRC.   Dblast Posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 12:39 am:        You will also need to plug or plate over speed sensor hole in case, and route trans vent hose up subframe.   Dblast Posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 11:10 am:        Here is a picture of my 96 S1 that I installed my black 01 X1 engine in. I also used the swingarm,shock and brakes.   Natexlh1000 Posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 11:13 am:        You could just leve the speed sensor in there and not use it, right?   Dblast Posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 12:38 pm:        You can leave it in. I used a block off plate from a big twin trans. I used the wire harness and neutral light switch from the S1.   Bluzm2 Posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 03:19 pm:        I built one last winter, drops right in. Same cases, different internals... Brad   Wile_ecoyote Posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 06:40 pm:        Love that color Dblast! Looks kinda easterish. Cool   Cyclonemduece Posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 09:21 pm:        very pastel   Dblast Posted on Tuesday, April 01, 2008 - 11:25 am:        I painted it blue to go with my red & white !   Dblast Posted on Tuesday, April 01, 2008 - 01:14 pm:        The S1 is actually light blue, that first picture has bad lighting. The sun was going down.   Wrecker Posted on Thursday, April 03, 2008 - 01:12 am:        Valuable info guys. I really appreciate the chiming in.   Wrecker Posted on Thursday, April 03, 2008 - 01:18 am:        Dblast, Did you keep it fuel injected (with an earlier Cyclone tank) or go with a carb?   Cyclonemduece Posted on Thursday, April 03, 2008 - 01:41 am:        looks carbed to me   Chasespeed Posted on Thursday, April 03, 2008 - 11:48 am:        Yep, you can see the diaphragm/spring cover on top of the carb.... Chase   Dblast Posted on Thursday, April 03, 2008 - 12:31 pm:        I used the S1 carb and manifold, ignition and two inch header with a Vance&Hines. The engine has 1250 kit, 536 cams, and porting. It made 106hp and 85ft.lbs at the rear wheel on a Dynojet dyno when in the X1. With the carburetor and two inch header it feels stronger down low, butt might have lost some hp on the top. I want to have it on the dyno again to see what happened.   Buellfighter Posted on Thursday, April 03, 2008 - 03:21 pm:        Wow, that's a nice set-o-rides.   Bluzm2 Posted on Monday, April 07, 2008 - 12:29 am:        When putting an X1 motor in an old tuber frame, make sure you change out the timing cup. The X1 is set up for single fire, the stock tuber motors don't like that much. The wiring harness and coils aren't set up for it. Bike will run like crap. Don't ask how I know. Brad   Cyclonemduece Posted on Monday, April 07, 2008 - 11:38 am:        there is an m2 wire harness for sale on craigslist in mpls.
