    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.

Remove engine 1100L

We've detached all the wires/cables, removed the exhaust, separated the tranny from the shaft drive and we're stuck on how to get the engine out of the frame. There is one unremovable lower rear engine bracket on the rear side of the tranny that is impeding our ability to slide the engine out. My question is how do we get the engine past that pesky bracket????
 
We got it out!!! It took a lot of manhandling, car jack and plywood but it's out :).
 
The engine mounts on one side unbolt .
I take them out then tip the bike over on that side (onto a matress) then lift the frame off the engine . I put it back in the same way .
Anyway , you got it .

Cheers , Simon .

On the L model, the rear lower engine brackets are welded to the frame. We took off the other brackets. To put it back in, we're going to use a tripod and a come along.
 
the way I put the engine back in....

Removing the breather cover and maybe even the valve cover, gives you a little extra wiggle room. I use a car engine hoist and rachet straps

We took the breather cover off. He was reluctant to take the valve cover off because he worried the rockers could get damaged in the process.
