Sold a very nice stock engine and set of carbs to a poor sod who bought a so-called "restored" 400F which cost him £3500 and which looks nice but is a dog. I think I referred to it elsewhere.Anyway, I recommended he just drop the lump into his existing chassis, but no, he wanted to keep the original engine number, and intended to take the top end off my engine, and transplant it onto his. Because his bike would only do 50mph flat out.So the transplant was done by his mechanic. And he's just phoned me. Now it does 70mph - well, that's an improvement - but a knock from the bottom end has jus surfaced. Wasn't there before. I'm willing to bet his mechanic has buggered up an oilway or something in transplanting the head.So now he is going to have his mechanic remove the engine, replace the head on the lump he bought from me, and put that engine in.I mean, what could possibly go wrong?
