Got your big bore kit? - check its the right one?
 
Just a quick message - did you get your big bore kit today?

If so, have you checked it fits your bike/engine?

I got mine sent for my 2001 M600 - and its the wrong kit, the kit is for a pre 1998 engine, so wont fit at all:o

Check the part number if you have an engine from 1998 onwards - you need kit number: DU96401698C

If you have the DU96401697C that is for the earlier engine.

The easy check is the early kit has black barrels & no O rings, and the later kit has siver barrels & O rings - and pistons are different too, as is the base gasket.

Looks like I'll be on the phone to JHP in the morning:( - I did wonder when the o rings didnt turn up with the kit, as they are shown in the catalogue.

No way can it be adapted mate (not to my knowledge!)

looks like the box is returning - am I the only one running a later m600?

I've got a different part number for mine - thanks for the heads up tho Charlotte ... or Al :)

we just think they've sent the wrong one by mistake - Al was just worried somebody else had his one - and would find a similar problem when they couldnt fit it!

He is going to be on the phone this morning.....

Bradders, you have U2U, but it will have to go back mate:)
