Hi,
I have a valve chain which really needs replacing on my K75. I have a spare K100 motor on the floor. I'm fairly sure that I do not even want the know the price of completely changing the valve timing chain and associated gears, so I need to know whether the valve gear is identical and I can just swap between the two motors.
To save me stripping down the spare motor and stripping my road bike to check dimensions, can some knowledgeable person tell me if this is possible. Maybe if timing marks are a little different, or any gotchas.
many thanks.
