part numbers are the same for both bike units...so they should be interchangeable......

Are you sure they're the same?  Seems to me the Drifter and Nomads had different 'tuning' -  I suspect the ECU's are different.  You need to look at the full part number, not just the drawing reference number on the parts fiches.

Having said that, they might still interchange with some minor (maybe) performance issues though - you'd want to make sure the pin out is exactly the same though before trying otherwise you risk frying the ECU or something that's plugged into it.  ECU pinouts are in the service manuals (I think).

What would be the differences between a 01-05 Drifter 1500 ECM and a 1500 Nomad 01-05. I've seen both and the connections look to be the same and both are the same engine. Reason I'm asking is that I can get a used  ECM, which I need, from a Nomad for $179.00 vs. a new one from Parzilla for $515.00
