I recently picked up an entire upper end 05 xb12 from a wrecked frame buell. Heads Rocker Boxes Rocker Covers Push Rods Push Rod Tubes Cylinders Pistons Throttle Body assembly for 350$. I have an 03 XB9R. Anyone know or undertaken the procedure for a head transplant? Is there a shop in Calif that will do this for a reasonable cost? I have a full cnc machine shop so case boring isnt a problem.

The heads on an XB9 and XB12 are the same.

It's the stroke of the engines that makes them different.
The bores are the same.

Of course you could bore out the jugs more to get the same displacement.....
