will the tapered steering bearings for the XS650 fit the SR500? all front end pieces are interchangeable right?

Many front end pieces are, but the bearings are not. Look at the Yamaha parts page and compare to the same-year XS650, you'll see that the SR bearings are different sizes top and bottom.
Springs are supposed to be different, but Progressive supplies the same aftermarket springs for both with different preload spacing.

There are tapered steering head bearing kits available here in Aus, and I imagine in the US as well.
The Aus kits are made by Linko...about $80 Aus....they make a very noticable difference when you put them on...feels like a new bike.
