Hi, looking at a used '04 FS 450, the owner says it needs a head gasket, no information on mileage.
I have no need for a supermoto type bike, but would love to be able to use this on forest service back roads.
Has anyone converted the FS to an enduro model?
I saw one website that showed differences between the three 2004 models of the 450 and while all 3 used the same shock part numbers front and rear, the FS had less suspension travel than the other 2 models.
Other than changing the wheels ( & sprocket & chain), what else would need to be done to make this an enduro type model? Can someone throw a guesstimate of cost? It may not be cost effective to try, but I'm thinking I could use a project. Thanks, Ddusty
