Hey Chris I had the unfortunate task of having to replace mine last year after the original decided to give up its hold of the magnets ? I too used the RMStator one and was perfect.
The only additional thing I would add is keep an ear out for a high pitched whiney noise. I had it develop after around 600 miles and it turned out to be the bearing in the engine case giving in. The weird thing was it sounded and worked fine when spinning the rotor by hand and gave no indication that it was failing at all but once it was removed my mechanic spun it up to full speed using an air gun and it sounded awful
Now I might have been unlucky or it could have been that the new Rotor was a few 1000ths thinner but it needed to be changed out. Was relatively cheap to replace and wasn't causing any issues at the time other than a high pitched whine when the engine was revved (think of a crap sounding turbo whine haha) anyway just something to look out for mate ??
