XTZ660 conversion questions

Post by snoopy »

Hi all new member. I'm going to stick an L100 10hp engine into an 1992 Yamaha Tenere. I've got the bike to the shell and I'm about to order a cheap L100 engine for £260. Can anyone advise on which gearbox would be the best to use?

Thread moved to gearbox topics let me know if its not the right place.

For gearbox the options are either something out of a pre-unit bike, eg enfield box, harley etc. or the box out of a unit bike with the cylinders cut off or unbolted. Or there is always CVT. Depends what you need and how much hassle you are prepared to go to I guess.

And welcome to the forums! :mrgreen:
