    850 & 1000 components... Question

    There's a dead 850 in a yard near me... Would it be possible to pull the kick start components out and put them into a 1000? I know the 850 is a shafty & my 1000 isn't, but would it even be possible?
    Looking for info from someone who has had both of these bikes apart...

    Thanks.

    The 1000 engine cases don't have any space for the kickstarter mechanism, it's actually a couple inches shorter because of it.

    Life is too short to ride an L.
