Re: Engine crankshaft
No, not without major machining. The shaft is too long where the rotor fits. This would have to be shortened, then drilled and threaded for the bolt/breather that holds the dynamo sprocket on. It would be from a later model 20 so would also have to be balanced for the bigger pistons.
The correct crankshaft for your bike is usually much easier to find.
