    It's progress though! 38 bucks is still a lot better than 65.
    I wish he would fill us in. I never heard that.

    He doesn't remember what bike it went to. I'm going to make a trip to a local suzuki dealer Monday and see if they can match it up.

    the shift shafts are not the same unfourtnetly

    the YZ is about 1/2 inch shorter, just enough so you cant get the shifter on

    just to let you know- the 85 Yz and the tri-z heads and head gaskets are not even remotely the same, the YZ use's o-rings, to run the YZ piston you need the whole cylinder not just a sleave in the Tri-z jug, the intake on the YZ is MUCH bigger and lower on the bore.

    I just put the complete hub/axle and front tire off of an 85 200x on my Z , and I also put 300ex rear hubs on the back (axle was worn, 300ex hubs were new and fit tight). The front brakes take some working, but they will go .

    Can you use a 250R front wheel on a Z?

    Wrong, the head gaskets are the same, the YZ didn't go to O-rings until 86.

    I've put a tri-z wheel on a 250r so I know they swap but I don't know about the brake, I don't think that will work.

    A memeber here named Jeb has done this switch on his Z. I would ask him for more details.

    Howdy....

    The YZ 490 swap was mentioned a couple of times in this thread.....
    What year 490?
    Air cooled, or water cooled? Was there ever a water-cooled YZ 490? Sorry, but while I have spent a ton of time on lots of different bikes, my 490-nese is sorely lacking...
    What about the rear-kicker design of the 490?

    A 490 swap is not in the cards right now, but it would be something pretty darn interesting to do later on, as I have access to a couple of different YZ/IT 490's...

    PS: Does the Banshee rear brake rotor work on the Tri-Z? There are some interesting wave rotors for the Banshee out there....

    Actually they don't unless you have wear on at least one of the parts. Fresh you could barley them on.
