Is the left side transmission cover the same part for both the XVZ12 (1983-1985)and the XVZ13 (1986-1993) or are does each motor have a different-sized cover?

 

Thanks,

The 83-85 is about 1/2" narrower than the 86-93 version. The motor block has no change in this area over the years.

 

Difference is due to changed stack-up height of the clutch pack when changed from 6 helical springs to the bevel spring.

 

You can put a 86-93 clutch cover on the 83-85 motor/clutch combo. But not the other way. I discovered this when upgrading clutch about 4 years ago.

Is the Stator Housing the same for the 1984 and 1988 VR's and therefore can be transferred between the two bikes?

 

Thanks,

Richard,

As Gary said, all the engine case covers are interchangeable with the exception of the clutch cover.
