i was told (by sam at kamikazi)it uses this(07601) NSR .12 rod..

not sure which to replace with because they are different lengths.

Measure your old rod and see. I don't remember for sure but I thought that motor used the 7601 rod. Wouldn't surprise me if it's the old MT12 rod though.

The s5 is a long stroke engine it uses the 7600.The 7601 is for the s3 which is a short stroke.
