600e engine in Tenere frame

It'll pretty much slot straight in. Clutch arm (on engine) on Tenere and Es are different so will need E clutch cable. Also Tenere choke cable, carb inlet rubbers, depending on which model it is. All engine mounts, casings, carbs and electrics are as far as I know the same.

engine swop

The old kickstart only Teneres, have a shorter shaft out of the gearbox, so here its to much work to get an E engine fitted.

The E engine from 90-94 fits without any problem in the 1VJ and 3AJ models, you just use your old alternator on the engine.

The E engine from 95-04 fits also without any problem int the 1VJ and 3AJ but you need the clutch cable from the E because its on the right side of the bike. And if you maybe strip the E you can use the hole wiring with the E alternator or you have to use your old alternator

regards

Thomas

Exclamation Keep the Alternator

Hi, whatever you do, keep the old alternator and wiring. I mounted a 3AJ engine in a 1VJ frame and had to re-wire almost the entire charging system. I made it work but as they say, don´t try this at home.

Had i known, i had definently used the original alternator and wiring.

Regards, Rikard

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
