    Newer tank/plastics on older bike?

    I like my 99, but I hate the styling. Anyone know if the tank and rear plastics from a 00+ bike will even sit properly on the frame, or is the 00 a complete redesign? I can deal with different mounting point locations, as long as the parts physically fit on the bike. Will i need a 00+ seat as well?

    newer plastics?

    Can I fit '07/'08 rad shrouds on an '04 FE450? I heard once you can do it with an '07/'08 tank but I wanted to double check that's all I would need. They look far better (in my opinion) to the '04 ones. Next question... Are there any differences at all between '03 and an '04 FE450 frame? The...

    I am (was) 6'4 245 lb. 53 and I have decided to buy a new bike and set er up for trailing. I have a 2004 550 FE that I bought new and like the motor on, but, I didn't put the $$ into the suspension to make it right. Even so I was thinking of raising the bars and dropping the pegs to make it...

    Does the newer style clutch fit on older engine?

    I'm wondering if there's a way to fit the newer (2004 and up) clutch basket and plates onto the older (2002 FE501) engine. The reason I ask is because I want to put a Rekluse Pro on my bike, but they only make it for the 2004+ bikes.

    FE400 & NEWER 450 PARTS COMPATIBILITY

    Graphics aside, the frame and plastics on my 2003 FE400 looks identical to a newer 450. Are they? The reason I ask is although it is fairly easy to find replacement plastic, graphics, rad guards, skid plates...for a newer 450, 400 parts are hard to come by. Is there any cross-compatibility...

    More reports on newer FE550's please!

    I've been keeping an eye on these bergs for some time, but I bought a new Husky TC450 earlier this year because of the price and great reviews, but I still feel the FE550 is better suited for my type riding and I wouldn't mind having one in the future. I've read of one or two more recent...

    Any sprague gear slippage with 2003 and newer bikes?

    The weakest link on my 2002 501 e-start system is the sprague clutch (free wheel mechanism). You know, hit the e-start button if the motor isn't completly warmed up and hear the starter motor kick-out and spin freely without turning the bike motor over. I replaced the sprague clutch itself not...
