As far as i know, the following will straight swap:

engine
rear wheel
rear shock

The forks are slightly different size apparently
dont know about the swingarm
the rear wheel will straight swap but i think the front is different (or visa versa)

frame construction is different, swingarm construction is also different (might be the same mounts though)

rear subframe looks different also

whats the ride like then? just been looking around and the H frame looks completly diffrent far more boxy dos it still handel as well?

i really dont want to buy a nice condition bike for 1k+ one because i'll be destroying a bike that some one else could enjoy and 2 i havent got that kind of money!

i want a L thats been blown up or crashed bent forks sort of thing for about £500 just cant find one!

Well the racers use the H model frame, weather they use that more than the L model i dont know, but i doubt they would use it if it wasnt as good. I think they are probably about the same.

Am I right in thinking the SP model uses and H frame?

I really want to be wrong here, because I have schemes in place...

The SP model of the H series is called the J model. And the SP model of the L series is called the M model.

So yes you are wrong if that makes ya feel better? :smt001
