Interchangable parts
28.05.10 at 19:23:45
 
Hi Steve here first post.  looks like a very informative site. I am a big fan of the TR1 and have some questions.
Do any of the other model virago 1000/1100 engine parts fit on the 920 engine?
I see a lot of similarities with the cylinder head on the Yamaha XT500. Are they interchangeable? How about the XT 600 cylinder heads?  It being a 4 valve seems like an oppurtunity!
Cheers

Steve

Hi

Does anyone know why these heads are not used?

Other than that there is lot of building to get motor back to frame?

This is a quote from a few road tests that I have read " It shared a few characteristics, in that the barrels appeared loosely based on that of the SR500 single (They weren't; they were a new design which just looked similar)" So reading this I don't think that they can be used but I stand to be corrected
