I'd like to swap in a TDM900 engine into my 650 Sachs.
Any ideas?

YUP HI!
Oh and get a 900 Yamaha if thats what you want, I dont think the frame will like the motor.

i was measuring one up at the kwaka shop last time i was there
its a very well packaged engine, really slim in the width

i dont know why you would put it in a shit chassis like that though...

That frame will take it (hehe) no problem it's heaps strong enough...

You might want to get some carbon indercaters tho, possibly some LEDS in random places just to strenghten the frame. Safety first

I've read where someone has done it - they had to cut away part of the sump to squeeze it in the frame.

It's OK - they're dry sump.
