OK just stalked all your posts

I reckon you'll be fine

I'm sure you already know not to trust anything that ebay seller says "only the left hand handle bar is bent" It's a one piece handlebar on a naked

So are you just gong to swap in the spare engine you already have rather than mess about with cases & the problem with the gear lever?

for that price you cant complain.. looks an easy repair job.. at least you have a good base for a strip and rebuild.. remember to take lots of photos and or videos...
