Hello pal, the 185 kits for sale on ebay will fit with some fiddling and cleaning of the ports.. why not doing so? If not, the best option is what Jason suggests: TS185 piston and have the head propperly matched.
Best,
Jaime

Hi Simon,
When we discussed this I forgot to mention the gearing. While the RT and Casa kits would probably be o.k., I'm not sure the steel lined ally kits would.
Anyone know?

Why would it be a problem? Is it a TV175/SX200 gearbox correct? All works in my books. Perfect cruising 4.8 ratio

Jaime,
I meant, I don't known how racey the port timings are on the steel-lined ally kits. If they have little torque at low revs 1:4.8 could be painful.
cheers,
Nigel

I see, then do as Dave Webster suggests on its manual, play with the sprockets to ease on the gearing. I honestly would leave it. I have done one of these kits with an SX200 gearbox and the result was quite sattisfactory
