    Message the seller on eBay and ask them if they are genuine, only one way to find out! ;)

    Cant speak on the actual question, but any reason you dont want to go the manual route but OEM instead? Curiosity question lol.

    Talking to one of my hinda technician friends and something to do woth how the oem ones work. Manual ones are 99% of time set too tight with how the bike works on them or something.
