When he said that is had a longer crankcase what he meant is that the crankshaft is longer which allows to mount a spinner alot easier. The ignition was also updated also. I think that I read that is has a timing adjustment of + or - 2 degrees. I am waiting to one to come in stock to purchase for Tino out of Germany. Good deal too, right around 250$ shipped as long as mvvs didnt jack up the price along with the updates.
