secrets ... |
|
| There are many things which might lead to you ordering or getting a wrong (that is non fitting) system. We feel it is helpfull if you know what we have experienced here: | |
| changeovers in manufacture at the time between models |
mainly different crankshafts or different ignitions (ignition
manufacturer having gone bust). question at the time: who was stronger manufacturer of bike or manufactuirer of ignition. The weaker one had to modify. equally some manufacturer in crisis just used whatever material they had on the day. |
|
different national versions of motorcycle |
very often at least different trade names, but equally differences to accomodate nationally different regulations (output restrictions) and importer wishes |
| customer mistaking type of motorcycle |
happens more frequent that you think. sometimes even data in road papers (including year of make) are wrong. We have seen funny cases. |
| off roads and no end |
here scope for mistake is biggest! nearly 50% of data on bikes supplied to us for identification are wrong or worthless - a KTM 125 e.g. may be anything. one can not rely on year of make as this sometimes is only year of registration (opr re-registration for road use) people using the bike for competion sometimes hide real type or modifications made. some say they never got papers with the bike. |
| modifications in motorcycle since manufacture |
big problem as mostly impossible to know: # different cranks fitted # parts modified to fit 3rd party material # repaired cranks |
| customer having fitted different make of engine, but orders as per make of frame |
for ignition system make of frame is totally irrelevant, it is
engine that matters. still happens quite often |
