Yeah all Suzuki's had that setup including the 4 strokes. OK maybe not but RMs, PEs, TS, RGs of all sizes. It's a bit of a shitty system. The latter the model the flatter the reedblock.
My X7 had TS125 pistons which takes to 275. Heads cut in two and some porting and skimming.
The cranks like most Suzuki's is barely adequate.
You'd want to rebuild crank from the start and try find some Yam parts to fit. Opens up piston options.
GS550 caliper dramatically improved the brake. GS550 shocks discarded from my old 550 were longer and stiffer and helped ground clearance, steering and despite being rooted were better than std.
Think I saw the old motorcycle mechanics article on the web recently.
Mine was Blue, there was White and Red too. X5s seemed to be black or yellow but they are a bit different. A mate has just done one.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
