I want a gun....
« on: March 07, 2024, 02:26:07 PM »
I just got a call from the garage that is working on my bike, come across please they say. A more senior mechanic from their main branch was there, good guy I've met before. You need a new primary chain he said, and showed me why. This is exactly what I asked before they closed up and returned the engine to the frame, but got told it was ok....it isn't.  ::) Also some scoring in the left cylinder and a chippy 3rd gear dog needing change (see my post in desperately seeking) The labour side of things isn't going to cost me any more but I really hoped to have my bum back in the saddle today. Does anyone have a gun...a Bazooka...a harpoon they can lend me?  >:(
I brake for animals!

That's a real bummer on my rebuilds I tend to overkill and replace the primary drive bearings just in case.

Blimey George, I hope you are thinking of using said implement to sort out the chap that originally said it was all OK 🤔🤔🤔🤔 Are they now saying you need a rebore as well to sort out #3 cylinder?
