engine swap
At this moment, I do not have the information readily available on the two
engines. The one that I currently have on my '86 model is a kickstart only,
as for the engine that is on the '90 model, the pictures that I have seen lead
me to believe it is an electric start only. After my original post, I realized
that I hadn't even considered the electrical issue, which may or may not be
an issue at all. The wiring harness on my '86 model is in great working order
except for the turn signals. As for the legality of this great undertaking, who
knows, the great state of North Carolina is as messed up as a mashed cat
when it comes to the laws of the land and the rights of its citizens. I once had a Suzuki DR 350 that I tried to put on the highway, but that was another crushed dream that I had. Hence the purchase of the XT 600. This
idea may not be as easy as once thought!
