Cylinder Head Difference Between Before/After 2020 Model

I found the scramblers have different model code.
[0J31- 0J33; 0L71-0L73]

And not only the cylinder head but also the oil rings have different parts number.

Cuz I order a “15-20 2V Cylinder Head”, I worry that it cannot fit my 2021 scrambler.

The parts seems look same.
Does anyone knows the 15-20 cylinder head can fit on the 21 model?

Here are the reference links.

Don’t think so, the coil wires are routed to the side as opposed to the bottom on ’21+ models, so even if the mounting would fit, you’ll still have some challenges tidying up the wires.

No, they won't fit.

See above. The heads were redesigned in 21 for Euro 5 compliance. The throttle bodies and exhaust are also different.

Thanks guys.
It seems I bought a wrong parts.

One more question, I would like to order the cylinder head again.
Does this online shop provide the official parts?

Any recommend for purchasing BMW parts in Europe.

It is a good chance to bring some option719 parts from
Europe. :-D
