Your very welcome JR, I got that info. off buggydepot.com, they have a lot of very good information on that sight, I'll bet there are many articles on there that would be very helpful to many of us, I haven't had time yet to really go through there stuff but I will be as I have the time, and anything that looks like it would be useful to us here I will copy, paste and post, never can have to much useful info. Peace Mapbike thanks! Going to copy and paste this in the general section too valuable info to pass up! JR

sprocket: Tough to say. As far as I know, mine's just the standard EGR-equipped valve cover (sans EGR BS). Take that with a grain of salt- being as this is my first scoot, everything would look 'normal' to me simply due to frame of reference. Bolts were some shiny, 8mm x somewhere around 30-40mm length if my memory serves. Been a while since I've been 'in there' (last valve adjust - 8 mos?), it's a real PITA to strip down my body style so you can get at anything. Basically have to remove all panels from the seat on back. Will give it a closer look soon tho, when I have to strip it down to upjet & etc. and let you know if anything strikes me as different. I might have been a little hasty on the buggydepot engine, too. Looks like they have an active forum, which does speak in their favor. The engine is 'large valve', and at least they put some dimensions up, which is nice. I dunno, maybe not so bad. I'd still go with the 161QMK or a 250 if possible tho. When mine eventually goes, that'll likely be the route I go, providing the rest of 'er is still in roadworthy shape at the time.
