I'm told that if you change the entire drivetrain, you can get the Evo installed into our frames. Some minor mods required, but NOT ROCKET SCIENCE! You need to replace everything-engine, trans, primary and internals, starter, etc. But a big inch Evo 5 or 6 speed is starting to sound better and better in these bikes! I'm at the point of no return right now with mine. But if I knew a year ago, what I know today, there'd be a 113" carb Evo 5 speed in my bike right now!!! :o ;)
