  • 657x Swap With A 717

    I AM TRING TO FIND OUT IF MY 657X ELECTRONICS WILL WORK ON THE 717 THE 657X IS IN A 95 GTX AND THE 717 IS OUT OF A 98 GSX. ALSO DO I HAVE TO CHANGE THE BACK PEACE OF THE EXSHAUST OVER OR CAN I JUST LEAVE THE MAIN PIPE ON THE 717 AND LEAVE THE 657X REAR PORTION IN THE SKI
    I HAVE THE COMPUTER FOR THE 717 BUT TOOK IT DOWN TO SHOP TO GET A LAN MADE AND THERE WAS NO BEEP OR ANYTHING. WHAT COULD CAUSE THAT, THE BATT WAS IS GOOD.

    Some 657X motors come with a two coil stator and others come with a single coil stator. All 717's come with a single coil stator. You are in luck because the 1995 GTX has a single coil stator too, so your 717 magneto and stator assembly is basically the same as the 1995 657X engine.

        I'd use the whole 717 pipe.
