fuff66uk Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I am looking for a few parts for my xv535 but have noticed xvs650 one's are much cheaper,floorboards for one,will the 650 one's fit my xv535? I can't really see why they wouldn't but have any of you good folks interchanged bits between the 2 bikes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cov_AL Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Knowing Yamaha, they probably won't. I had to change the rear brake switch on my old XVS650 and got one from ebay that had come off an XVS650a - it didn't fit as they've got a different shape connector on... It seems the only reason for the difference is to make you buy O.E.M. parts for your specific bike. I may be wrong, but I seriously doubt they will fit.

Ttaskmaster Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Aftermarket parts are usually cheaper that OEM. However, you can usually find 535 parts quite cheap second hand on the myriad sites. eBay is always good for such stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ttaskmaster Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 PartFinder, Part-finder, Part_finder, Parts-Finder, Part-Finders, .com, .co.uk, .net etc etc... There are quite a few permutations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
