Friendly FYI for those contacting Slonik Shop about the gear covers. He's name is Mikhail.
Now y'all don't have to look like the fool I was. 🥴

Sort of - it's more like how we would say "kitty" versus "cat." Small elephant would be directly translated as "malinkiy slonik." And that concludes this Russian lesson .

Removing/installing bolts without it may damage the head. I'm not 100% positive if the engine need to be retimed. |

Again this is just eyeballing from pics available. I've decided to go with the Slonik one just to be certain it doesn't require grinding. |

He was gracious and I was respectful and a drama free buyer. He didn't say anything about it until I figured out his name on WhatsApp and then apologized for calling him both Slonik and Slon. Then he told me about the translation.
