Guessing the good one is original. The fouled one is about 5,000Kms old. The bike only has about 26,000 on it. (~16,250 Miles)

I replaced it tonight and, just as I thought, it's still not firing and spitting would-be compression straight out the exhaust. I'm starting to accept my faith. I gave in and started some minor disassembly tonight. Removed the fairings, exhaust and the rad is hanging by the hoses until I drain it. I guess I'll just pick away at it in the evenings for now.

I'm speaking with a guy down your way Tmall that has another engine for sale. I'm still not sure what I want to do.

1. Buy another and fix this one to sell.
2. Buy another and sell this one as is.
3. Just try fix this one.

It would be nice to just stick another one in it and then fix the other at my own leisure.
