A quick wash and a clean and rolled into the Irish Drizzle (light rain for my Merkin cuzzins 
)
)
Bollox Doesn;t time fly when you are busy??
Kicked some butt last night and tonight and tore the engine down
Not bad and as you may see I can see why she was left Seems that half the clutch material has disappeared and she's honking oil out the back seal!
Okay here
Not here tho
Yeugh Not pretty
But they clean up well
Even tho she was abandoned 10 years ago all these bolts in the timing chest came off easy Thumbs up for BM
Bit of an oil leak tho New seal on order and not one of those crappy new membrane seals either!
Good news is no pitting or marks on the cam and no play in the mains and the valves and guides are in good shape
I may have to get the polisher out and do a bit of blueprinting and balance a few things while it's in bits

And you dare pick on my airhead project ! 
Just set fire to it ( then again the hot spots on that piston may do it for you )

Just kiddin'

I wish I'd have checked the sump first! Now I have to take off the timing chain assembly that I just did
Scabby bean can is just there to keep dirt out Till I find Escargot's one
On a positive note the big ends are sparkly and not worn
and a nice clear (in german) explanation
Yeugh!

Okay so I have removed the crank nose bearing and refitted the pin
Now I happen to have sitting on the Shelf a 336 cam ????
R100GS std motor plus a 336 Cam
What do the collective think ??

Those are rubbish... Only americans use them these days... No sensible airhead owners would want one. Just ask RF... He told me they were pants.
longue vie l'escargot!
