Just wondering on this, will the gl1100 pistons fit the gl1000? probably using a different wrist pin, but you never know being that honda uses so many parts from the bin.

The 1100 pistonsshould fit the conrods OK, but the cylinderliners may not be thick enough to be bored out to the right size. Fot the benifits obtained I cant really see the point.
