It wouldn't be a tough change.....just take the left engine case and stator wiring off the later bike and put the one from the earlier engine on. The engine will work fine with that change.

Well, that is easy. Ok, I am going to see if the engine is still available. Thats great man. Thanks.

Wow..... looks like the previous owner didn't come here to get his information on replacing that oil plug when he pulled the top off.

Good thing you did though....

I know rockers can be built up... but not sure about cam recess (block) shims maybe?... I bow to higher authority on experiences with this engine.

Hope someone with more experience shows soon.

ok, gots me an engine. It had 19200 miles on it. Picked up at a junk yard. So, Now comes the task of swapping stuff. I will be using the new engine and using the old engine as a parts engine. The first thing I need to do is swap the stator. Any thing I need to know about this swap. Is it straight forward? Also, I see a starter gear I will need to swap. no biggie here, that I see. Also, got the Carb in the deal. So have an extra Carb... Nice. So, back to my first question, Do I just swap the Cover with the stator on it? Should be doing this swap next Tuesday. I will swap my Versy tensioner over as well, inspect the cam chain as well. Man, this bike has taken forever!!

Here is the old engine with the cover off...

Said part to swap...

FREE CARB!!! HAHAHAH. Grin

We may have said stator, but we meant rotor.
That has to swap because of the timing indicator is specific to the cdi you have.
You want to keep the newer stator and cover along with the starter torque limiter. That'll keep you from busting out your starter bosses or breaking teeth.

Another key issue is it takes a special tool to pull the rotor. There's one floating around here somewhere.

Yeah....the forum bought a Puller to rent to members, and ultimately to create a "tool club" that you can buy a membership to. I currently have the puller in KY.

The puller will require a $ 100 deposit for the tool and to pay postage. Once returned in good condition the deposit minus the rental fee will be refunded. Rental fee is $ 5 and covers 30 days of use. When the "Tool Club" is officially organized it will include a $ 10 fee for lifetime use of the "Forum Tools".

Let me know if you want the puller sent to you and I can send you the PayPal address for payment and mailing information.

Or....you can drag your engine to a Dealership and have them pull the rotor for you.

Do you know what year the replacement engine is? Look a the rotors and see if they are the same....maybe you don' need to change it.

I'm not home but rotors look different... and YES Dave... NEEWB here, I meant rotor... lol Anyway, engine came of a 95 I believe and mine is a 98. I think. I will find out when I get home and get back to ya'll. The question would then be... easier to swap top end? It would not appear to though. urg!!
