Nothing brave about it Charlie. Just trying to cover my backside. I don't want this engine going bad on me ever again.

I say your brave because I'm a bit nervous about cracking one of these machines open. I need to replace the head and base gasket on my 650 and I'm procrastinating doing it. I'll get it done. Cheers.Originally posted by londonboards View Post

Charlie - I am a virgin case cracker too. But you will just need to go for it. I want my cases, cylinder and head vapour blasted and it can only be done as parts. Virtually impossible to do the whole engine in one go.
Can you imagine how many women would fall at your feet if your motor looked anything like any of these:
Ceramic clean is the next stop.
Anyway, it's good fun. Reminds me of being a kid and taking the alarm clock apart. You never really knew if it would ever work again or keep the proper time.

Manna from Holland
Picked up a dustbin load of "pot luck" parts from Holland over the weekend.
So much fun digging through it all to find out what I have.
