    I have heard that you can upgrade a 750 engine by swapping in some 900 parts. Is this true and what needs to be changed if so?

    Just use the entire engine and carbs. Only issue will be boots to airbox are bigger than any 750.

    Hi AndrewD the link has a little info related to what you want i think, the owner has a site about the bike but I can't find it the bike is called VooDoo child.
    Maybe you can find it, he's plainly a early Mad Max fan
