I can only wish, Tye is a professional mechanic who has done this job many a time. I am flying blind with the help of a lot of books and lots of good people in chatrooms who are willing to lend a hand. ALong the way I have learned heaps and try to return the favour where I can.
There has been a delay in the balancing of the crank by a third party. If all goes well I "SHOULD" have the engine parts back here just after the weekend and can then get to work on the engine.
You have no idea how frustrating this is right now. I just want to get stuck into that bike but cant because major parts are on hold. For example, the exhaust has been polished, but I cant assemble it until the engine is back in the frame.
All the component parts in the cases have been cleaned up with parts replaced where needed, but I cant put them back until the crank is here.
You need welding googles if you go near the engine cases thats how well they have been cleaned up and prepped ready for re-assembly.
This is where I am at in my frustration. A table full of spares and parts but no engine......yet
