new rocker cover different?
My old rocker cover is damaged and so I purchased another but it is different? the old one seems to have what appears to be an oil way? but the new one does not have it. Does this matter?

Are the two boxes for & fit the light weight head & both the same except the oil ways?

Re: new rocker cover different?
That's right - there's no oil drilling in the later models. There still seems to be plenty of oil feed to the top end on mine, but I haven't figured out where it comes from...
Presumably it just spills from the rocker shafts?

Seems the difference has been explained. I had never taken notice of my bike bits when dismantled.
