Yes you can
Mine had a 750 front end on it when I bought it, not sure if it's using the 660 or 750 yolks though

Probably using the 750 yokes, but the original stem swapped over

Thanks for the replies lads. Front end swap is on then. What about the swingarm from the 750 would that swap over aswell.

The 750 uses a different linkage system where the shock passes through the swingarm so it is not a direct swap.
When I get chance I'll measure the width of my yolks so you can compare them to standard, you might not need new ones.
FYI. this looks like a 245mm front disk from a 750
The 660 has a 280mm as standard
