    question on 650 and 850 carbs

    I've got a 850 that has stage 3 jets in it with pod filters and a v&h. Would I be able to swap the jets over onto my 650 with the pods and exhaust? I'm thinking no but I just wanted to make sure.

    No, the 650 would be really upset ! does the 850 run as is?

      Yeah the 850 runs but it's a project. I was going to swap over some things if I could

        What's the story on your starter clutch? I'm thinking that I might live long enough to have to inspect/replace mine at some point!

          It was rattling so I ended up pulling it out. The bearing and the holder with the spring fell out as soon as I pulled it off. Going to reset that and give her a go and see if the rattle stops.
