    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Motor install idea.

Below is a slide show of an idea I tried out to install my motor. It worked very well this time, I wil make some adjustments for the next time. My frame has non-removable lower mounts and I have to remove the cylinder head to pull the motor. Normally I would pull as much of the motor apart as I could to make it lighter but tried this instead. I place these pics in my profile on this site incase the slide show does not work properly. I remember seeing on here a guy laying the bike on its side and lifting the frame off, I'm not doing that on a bike I'm not parting out.

We use that 8020 extrusion for a bunch of stuff in our shop. Comes in handy !

Wow this is great! And perfect timing. I just pulled my motor out solo and was wondering how I'd get it back in solo when the time comes.

Thanks for posting this.
 
I work with 8020 every day. Good stuff. Much better than Unistrut. They sell on Ebay, which is a plus for home projects.
 
I guess that works great if the top of the enigne is not yet bolted on, I certainly did not have that much clearance to put mine back in......I had to do it another way....
