Motorcycle Motor Swap GS500

I didn't have a title for my bike and it looked like it was going to cost a good amount to get a bonded title so I decided to by another frame instead. I picked up a newer frame that was in better condition and had a title off of craigslist for 200$ and set my motor in it.

Great Video thanks! A few days ago I tried the same at my GS 500 but I didn't know how to move the engine so I can get it out...

Is it neccessary or better to get the oil out of the engine?

@hermann4 Thank you. We didn't drain the oil when we did and saw no problems. Removing the motor and putting it back in took a lot of time and beer. It helps a lot to have a buddy to help you out and a pry bar to wiggle the motor. There isn't much clearance so it makes it difficult to pull. It helps if you raise the motor some then bring the bottom towards the front of the bike. Then kind of rotate the motor out of the bike if that makes sense. Installation is reverse.
