Title: R65 cylinders interchangeable?
Post by: R65Singh on September 14, 2011, 03:26:09 PM

Just wondering if Left and Right cylinders are side specific or they are  same with no difference.  I tried looking at Max and Motobins but they don't list left or right separately. Thanks

I believe that the cylinder barrels are the same.  Of course, the cylinder heads and many of the attached parts are left/right handed.
