[J.P]

Ouch. Sorry for your loss.
There's a nice M900 for sale in the Forum at the moment if you want a whole bike.

what year is yours I may have a set of cases

[Dennis menace]

I know a bloke who does my bike MOTs and he has a number of engines for sale. He is in Nottingham. I can put you in touch if you want.

Get a chain case saver fitted next time!

[Dirty]

Horse door stable bolted comes to mind but invest in a case saver when you sort out a new engine.

[Dennis menace]

Got me worried now - does anyone know a supplier of case savers, specifically for an early M600? Couldn't find one on Ebay.

Pretty sure I saw them for sale at Cornerspeed; http://cornerspeed.co.uk/ when I was last in there. Not sure if for all models but should be local enough for you. :thumbsup:

Sorry I can't remember the bloke's name but this is the garage:

Cheers i will check it out

[Nottsbiker]

Thanks - very helpful

Forgot to add / ask - is the 900SS engine the same as the fitted to a Monster of the same year? I always thought that the gear ratios were different but might have totally dreamt this fact up....

[Dennis menace]

Hah! I see you were offered the same engine he try to flog me. Looked OK superficially.

[Dennis menace]

Sorry I can't answer your question about gear ratios.

[Nottsbiker]

Probably! A 900SS engine of 93 vintage for sensible money. Turns out a friend might know his business partner so might be able to vouch for him.

[Dennis menace]

Seems like an OK guy and yes his business partner is a genuine bloke and bike rider.

I'm sure they're the same, in fact if it's a later model then the SS is a better engine as '97 on (IIRC) 900 Monsters got a detuned version due to the fitting of more restrictive 750 type heads/cams.

The pukka 900 heads are marked 'V2' whilst the detuned version is marked 'W'.

I also have nearly complete bottom end if you want.

[Nottsbiker]

Thanks but I've already got a complete engine in bits but with rusty bearings through out so only considered buying another engine as it would be a quick fix and give me plenty of time to build mine up as a 944 with replated barrels and a balanced crankshaft etc.
