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

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.

Are they all the same or is it "swap-shop" time?

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?

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
