well you can fit whatever you want if you fit the correct parts to work with it.

The easiest way is to take the existing flywheel and have it lightened by skimming a bit off of the back face. You don't want to lighten an 850 flywheel very much because the small capacity will make it unpleasant if the flywheel is too light.

For a road-going 850 there is no point in spending out on an expensive lightweight steel one.
