TDM 850

Does anyone here know which parts are ( or are not) interchangeable between the earlier (3vd 91-95) and later (4tx 96-02) bikes ??

I know the engine internals are very different, and I'm told the forks are a little chunkier on later bikes, but the rest of the bike looks to be largely the same underneath.

Mine is the later version, but I prefer the looks of the earlier bike (side and nose fairings, headlights etc) so I wondered if I could convert mine quite easily, or not.

Also, mine will need a fair bit of fettling pretty soon. Earlier model parts are far more plentiful online, so it would make life much easier if I could use them.

Fab. Thank you.

I have searched for a TDM forum before but google had no useful results.
