    550 to 650 Head swap

    Hi all

    I have a GS550\\/ , the exaust ports are broken due to the past owner used brute force to remove a stubern exaust bolt. I can get a GS 650 head , i was wondering if i could do a straight swap?[-o< Thanks James

    You could probably find a head for the 550 on e-bay.There is a guy that switch to a 650 head but i think there is a lot involved in doing it.Look for post's by brveagle and you will find it there.

      I don't think it will fit, different cylinder spacing. Now if you changed the cylinders, pistons, and ground down the case a bit then you could use it.
