Sorry for the lack of pics folks.

 

I wen't pure Rambo on the engine yesterday morning. Was a good morning. Had a few too many celebratory beers at midday ????

 

Gears work. Compression is good & have spark! Just waiting for the new exhaust & cable set.

This sounds like a fun project. Can we place "bets" on the total cost. Im going 14,500.

Hey KTM so far the cost sits at 12,900b bro. I think you may be spot on with the estimate. ????

That's good going  for what you have achieved

 

I'm sure you mentioned it somewhere in the thread  but what brand of rattle tin spray paint do you use for these projects  the stuff I've used ( 1 Kobe and  2 Red Fox )

has not stood up to the intense UV very well.
