It has been done. 700 red head rear mounts are the same. front mounts are different and will require removal of viper front bulkhead and replace with one from a red head powered triple.
Yamaha built the Venom which is a 600 red head triple in in a viper chassis so just look up the parts microfiche for a Venom and it will give you all needed part #'s for the swap.

Did it burn down going slow? Viper had head flow issues that became serious if you drove it slow, Bender Racing has a head gasket that fixes that. Girlfriend burned down her 2003 Viper years ago and I found that out then. After head gasket no more issues. I think I still have a good cylinder and maybe a piston....
