Greetings all,

I have the opportunity to purchase a 250GTS ie. The frame is totally rotten, however. All the rest is good.

What im looking for is to understand what other models this engine can be transplanted to and from what years?

If you have a complete donor bike any GT/GTS 2005 and up will do.

If you mean the GTS 150, it's likely easier to stuff it in the early 125 than the new one with the radiator hanging off the side of the engine. It will fit right into the 125 GTS with the leader engine.

In a large frame 150 as is found in some markets but to do it to a small frame you'd have to be [checks user history], never mind, carry on.
