yeah true but we all know a CDI/TCI is a lot less basic than an ECU
-
could be worse, some people call them ECU's
-
just use an 1100 engine, its a lot easier
-
warp drive kicks in
-
as said they generally dont line up, BUT you might get lucky ? my old mate snapped one on his bandit, I managed to find one off a fecked head, but when fitted the cam was tight, i took the locating dowl out and nipped it up and turned fine, he ran that bike like that for years. not the right way but it worked.

I was impressed when you came all the way down to the west coast of Cumbria -

yeah ive fitted new frames to 2 of them, and had the top end off another, fecking cam timing is a nightmare, you really need to read the factory manual closely -

yeah i agree, the TL's have an evil engine and just want to wheelie all the time, nearly looped a customers TLR once just a bit too much throttle, fecking shit myself -
if the steels are not worn and flat you can reuse them. measure the thickness and get them on a flat plate to check for warp.
-
its really hard to beat OEM plates, but the fecking price is nuts
-
its a how long is a piece of string question ? theirs a chance the plates will thin out over time (with slipping the clutch) but that could burn them out. i had the same issue with aftermarket plates, in the end OEM fixed the issue. but not cheap !!!!!
-
some aftermarket plates are just slightly thicker than OEM, that can cause the clutch to drag which makes it difficult to find neutral
-
this is the kind of thing i was dealing with at the last bike shop i worked at, not saying i couldn't do it, it was a case of i didn't want too !!!! still got to do it on my car though

the price you pay for quality stuff.
