    Question RD03 Front Sprocket

    Somewhere on this expansive site, I'm sure that I've read that the front sprocket from a RD03 @ will fit onto the output shaft of the 600 TA!

    I've searched to no avail, hence this post.

    Does anyone in the collective expanse of XRV have the knowledge to confirm / dismiss this assumption of mine.

    If it does fit, does anyone have the part number for it?

    Thanks for sparing the time to read this drivel

    Was this the post you were after?

    XRV650 interchangeable parts
    Brrrmm - '04 XL650V Transalp in Silver

    It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

    Oops, sorry. According to CMSNL the part number you want is 23801-MN8-000.

    Have checked with them and the same part number does indeed come up for the XRV650 and VT600C.

    That part number looks like the one I fitted to my bike.

    Thumbs up Re: RD03 Front Sprocket

    Well, thats the change of sprockets & chain done.

    Revs in top gear down by 500. Bikes still feels able to pull well in all gears. 1st is still OK for stumbling about off road.
    Just need to see how the fuel consumption fares with the different sized front.

    All in all, an excellent and easy mod

    I have not noticed too much difference but I was thrashing the bike a bit at the weekend.
