Re: I've got a stiffy!!

suppose its a bit like clutch shims and gearbox shims are now produced in every thickness under the sun , is it the fact that we are using non-OEM parts on our scoots and tolerances vary from the originals or is it we are led to believe we need these parts so we comply?? i really don`t know :roll:
