Default Interchangable?
Does anyone know if the new M8 engine will bolt right into the Twin-cam bike? Is the trans mounting the same of different? Not looking for IF you think, looking for if you KNOW.

Been discussed. It will not bolt in, it would require significant alterations to get it to work.
