differences 4cyl 650 to 4cyl 750

what are the differences from a 650 to 750 4cyl? is it just the bore size or is there a stroke difference? i know the rods are the same.

i have a 750 and was always under the impression the bottom end was different. at the same time i dont know a whole lot about 650s either.

Early 650s used a bicycle style cam chain, but the later models used the hyvo chain like the 750s. The major differences were a smaller bore and slightly smaller valves. A 750 top end will bolt onto a later model 650 bottom easily, and will bolt onto an early model 650, but you have to keep the cam chain sprockets and idler sprocket from the 650.
