And the cam spindle is a different diameter, so the timing covers are not interchangeable at all so I doubt the valve lifters are either.

The spindle is different on the model E. I supplied a drawing for it to a chap in Belgium, I think it was and he kindly sent me one when I found that the one in my kit of parts was not the E-type. Good name for a car. Rod if that is the part you are looking for and your bike isn't an E or using the E cam, which is what would make the difference, let me know and I will have a rummage. 2250-27 A6/128 for the rest and 2251-27 A6/162 for E.

Rod, had rumage and found the non-E version that came with the bike but it is in a poor way. We have a works drawing available of the E version, copies available for £5. The non E version is the same but the cam is in a different position. Picture shows the E at the top

Hi Rod, the drawings are a club thing, not Draganfly although they shared the cost of digitizing them. The top one is the new one made by the last guy I sent the drawing to, the bottom one is old, rusty and wrong for my bike. See here http://www.arielownersmcc.com/members_o ... awings.htm you will need to log in.
Draganfly may have a 3 stud drum but it is probably in the mountain of unsorted spares.
