Thanks Verslagen and Batman, I was just about to bring that up.

The original bike was manufactured in 8/2003, the parts engine 3/1995.

According to my research I should be good as far as the cdi goes?

batman, I did do a compression test on the original engine before I started into it, it came back low at 105-110. The top end is certainly worn badly.

The parts bike I don't trust regardless.

Thanks again guys, I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out. I really like the simplistic way the ls650 bobbers look. I think I may buy another running bike so I have something to ride while I'm tinkering with these. Anyone selling one? Smiley

You should be aware that the 95 doesn't have the anti kickback gear for the starter,you should use the starter gears and sidecover from your 03 if you swap motors and it willbolt right up

Take a look at the TDI black boxes, if they have the same connector, they you should be able to swap w/out further mod's.

Ok, thanks. I will check the TDI box. This was the clutch corrosion I was speaking of within the parts engine. I might be able to swap out the clutch from the original engine?

clutches should be identical.
I think only the 86 was different.
