tosaw, what are you a guinea pig for / about? Molly & I both purchased & installed Panthera starters on our KDX 220. We shared many photos about the parts & installation. Here is the forum link (below). It may take 6 months to receive, and you won't hear from Panthera until Sébastien has the parts & will be shipping.

If it's 6 months then I've got about 3 months left to go! My only 'gripe' is that there seems to be no communication whatsoever even if you email, unfortunately. Nonetheless, I can't wait for it to be here.

I installed the Panthera kit. I never even inquired about when the product would show up. One day I had a package on my doorstep. It was less than 6 months though. You'll enjoy it. Be patient.

Installer's Tip: Install the drain plug with crush washer before installing engine case cover. This avoids the awkward angle / poor-ish access when attempting to start the initial threads. It's not necessary to torque the drain plug until cover is bolted to engine.
