Can't remember the name of the guy but someone on the US thumper pages did an article about racing an XBR where he went into detail on the differencwes and similarities between these motors,

Aye yoshi,
Quality site this! ;D
Type or paste : xbr/xl600 into the 'Search' frame, top left of this page and you may get the answers you are looking for. ;) Alternatively a fellow 'tweaker' who might be able to help. ;D

read the GB500 FAQ on the Thumper Page - it'll tell you all you need to know. Except you don't need to slot the engine mounts.
My regards, Bill.
