Seems to be from what I seen \\;-D No fitment issues I've seen either. My buddy has one on his GW 1500 he got 14000 out of his back and is pretty rough on the throttle (no burns outs, just twisting it a bit between gears)

Check Dunlop's website the E3&nbsp\\; MU90 is almost exactly the same size as the D402 MU85

Correct.&nbsp\\; The MU90 is .01" taller and .06" wider than the MU85.
