05 tank & rad. fit an 03?

My buddy wrecked his '03 650. He has some lines on some '05 tanks but for some reason they seem to be cheaper than the '03. Does someone know if they are interchangeable?

Oh and especially the radiator? The newer model's is slimmer. Will the fan's and other connections and mountings hook up ok?

Furthermore, would a 05 tank fit a Y??

Not sure about the actual physical task of persuading it to go on, but they're different shapes.

Can't see why the tank wouldn't go but I know that the radiator is interchangeable. Only seen it on a race bike so don't know about the fan, etc.

The rad is now smaller on the K5 than all the previous ones.

Will a K3 radiator fit a K4 bike coz James needs one?

K3, K4 and K5 will all fit.

The only question you need to ask is whether the fan uses the same mounts on the K5. I would guess at yes because it seems a daft things to have to reengineer but...
