Engine = ordered. I was going to go with a Ninja 500 engine but the end result would have been a torqueless wonder of a cruiser and would have taken $100 in carb tuning parts to make it run right. It’s my daily, I need it to Just Work (tm). Now I need to strap on the go-pro and make a Fast Not Loud episode out of pulling the stupid broken engine outside my apartment without getting evicted.
Here’s the annoying part.
This is the frame from my Honda CX500 I had (well, one similar). Head is on the left. The engine dangles below the frame and I was able to remove it with one person helping in 15 minutes.
This is the frame of a Vulcan 500. Head is on the right. Damn thing is trapped in there and the removal of *everything* from the area will be necessary to free it. Not looking forward to it.

Total missed opportunity here.

Think of it as practice doing an overly specific task.

I once watched a Petrolicous episode about a hipster who worked on his motorcycle inside his apartment. I am guessing that is not an option for you though?

I 100% would if it wasn’t split level. I’m not quite buff enough to strong-arm 440lbs dry up the stairs.

Good luck with the swap!
