Can anyone tell me if there is any difference in frames: 2002 vs 2008
If so, what are they?
Right hand or Left Hand drive?

The only difference I'm aware of is that the lugs first the mainstand were altered (changed from K5 machines onwards)
I believe K3 onwards the steering bearing seats are a bit 'taller' to allow for the taper rollers. Hence when people used to use K3 onward bearings in a K2 they stuck out the frame a bit.
Never seen it myself, but I recall reading about it.

No problems using K3 onward bearings in a K2 .
OK, I've found one, maybe I'll grab it. Thanks
Convert, sounds like a big job coming up. Not interested in getting it checked first?
