anyone ??????????????????? [roll] Title: Re: New to forum need advice plz. Post by: oppet on May 23, 2008, 07:30:00 AM I Think that you need leftside cover from earlier model where those hoses go and the hoses of course. they are return lines as far as I know.
Others may confirm perhaps, Im not 100% sure Title: Re: New to forum need advice plz. Post by: Speeddog on May 23, 2008, 08:16:36 AM I pinged Duck-Stew.
I'll eventually be facing this issue with my Cagiva, so, that makes two of us that need to know. Title: Re: New to forum need advice plz.

Title: Re: New to forum need advice plz. Post by: Duck-Stew on May 23, 2008, 08:32:40 AM It's a bolt-on swap.
The '98 M900's w/the 'W' heads had different oil drain-backs than previous engines (the external lines) they drained back the oil down through the barrel into the crank-case. The older engines had the oil drain-back hoses external to the alternator side cover. Title: Re: New to forum need advice plz. Post by: dansamp on May 23, 2008, 10:36:10 AM Xlnt !!!!! [thumbsup]

Hey Stew, did the 900 motors have the same change from square tooth to round tooth belts around '98 or '99 like the 750s did? Part of that "bolt on" might be swapping the cam pulleys over... big Title: Re: New to forum need advice plz.
