The good news is that the basic engine is robust and well proven.

Are you talking about the case seal, or the shaft seal?

He not only has a list of spares he took, but also of the mods on the bike he did and how satisfied he was with them.
Whilst on the topic: Did the Frame change in any way from R13 to E650G? I consider applying this bash plate, which (I called them) is tested on the E650G but they do not know if it fits the R13.
(R13: singlespark, pre 2003, E650G: twinspark, after 2004 (NOT Twin, only twin spark))
Thank you for your advice!
