   I am looking into buying a set of bodies.... I am just wondering if you can confirm my doubts...
   
   Blacktop VTRs have different inlet spacing to the 90bhp model roller rocker silver top dont they??
   
   If anyone could confirm this/ or tell me i am wrong it would be great!
   
   
   Hoping I am wrong as that means i can get the bodies I am looking at.....
