Do I need a different kickstart to do this or will the original one off the series 2 engine be ok? The new engine has a gp chaincase if this makes any difference?
Are there any other things that might need altering for it to fit? Not collected the scoot yet (spanish winter model) so trying to plan ahead.
Thanks.

i think the kickstart stop may be to short as the stop on series two case is different .. just need to extend the stop slightly

They do a series 2 kickstart with a series 3/ GP sidecasing. As Ricspeed says the stop is longer.

Winter Models did not have already series 3 engine in "a sort of" series 2 frame?
So a "so special" kickstart lever was fitted..?
