Is the cam positioning sensor the same from 96-02 Buell's like some sights advertise?

If so is there a difference from the carb models to the fuel injected model's?

Also a another dumb ? I am familiar with X1's but the M2's are all carburerated correct?

If the cam positioning sensor is the same is there a difference in the Timing sensor or "rotor cup" whatever you call it? for the fuel injected bikes?

Not to be a d**k but if you don't know keep your half thought out dim witted answer to yourself. Please give me good information from facts not what Bob told you at the bar I have come to realize that you can receive just as much bad info as good on here.

I'm not sure if the CPS is different?,but the rotor cup is different.

If you search carb conversion theres a thread
on here somewhere showing the different rotors.Theres an extra cut out for FI bikes.

I thought there was a difference in the cup just not sure about the sensor.

Sensor is the same, cup is different because EFI has to know which is #1 cylinder and which is #2 (for injector pulse).

And yes, all M2 are carbureted. All X1 are EFI.

Ok, thanks...

Knew all X1's were EFI that's all I ever messed with but recently acquired a bike that has a mixture of bikes that someone was trying to make work.

I guess they firgured if they threw enough sh** at it something would stick and I ended up getting the bike for a few hours of labor fixing another one of there bikes.

All carbed cups are the same. S1, S2 and M2.
First year of S3 too if memory serves.
The FI bike cups as mentioned above are different.
If you carb a fuelie bike and don't change the cup, it will run but VERY poorly.

If you hold them side by side you can see a big difference.

OLD SCHOOL HINT:

Always mark the parts so that you can put them back together on reassembly and the timing will be such as it will start ...
