Swapping DRZ 400SM for DR650 - parts compatibility

Hi to all Suzuki riders! I am planning to swap my 2007 DRZ SM for DR 650. I have spares such as wheels, brake upgrades (discs and brake cilinders) and FCR 39mm carb that I got for my DRZ. Do you know whether they are compatible? Can I swap front fork? Thanks, Normunds.

There is a big difference between the technology of the 650 and the 400. I'm pretty sure there's not a lot that will swap across.

Kind regards

Chains are the same pitch though.

The bar grips might swap over too
