Yes that is part of how I did this.
You are on the Best site for info on this and near the folks who really know how this is done.
Look through some of the other treads on this.
I've been here for a few years when I first got my 89' that I hated to let go but shit happens. I have the 02' CR250R with a fresh motor but have always wanted another 500. I've been coming the threads for the past few years and there is enough here to make you go blind. I just found out today that my 92' steelie frame has an 88' powerplant in it! But it's still a 500cc fire breathing machine! I'm moving back to Indiana thursday and will hopefully get this beer can transition started by month's end!
All Finished !!!!
