Flying together now then....
I have the same bike ramp nowadays.... a bargain when MachineMart have their VAT free offer.
Wish I had got it a few years ago when I was rebuilding the 400/4.

Yes, I feel like I'm getting somewhere now. The stripping, diagnostics, cleaning, measuring, machine work and general prep seemed to have taken an age. I suppose it's still more efficient doing it that way instead of having a load of dirty bits laying around that you need to clean etc each time you want to fit something.

Just fitting bits and pieces this weekend. Leaving the barrels / head until I have plenty of time to concentrate on the job without having to rush off somewhere.
Fitted the oil strainer and sump back on.
The strainer has very fine metal mesh.

The other side of the strainer where the big spring fits over.

Once fitted the spring pushes the strainer down onto the lip in the recess of the oil separation plate.

This is where the strainer and pipe fits.

And finally, all in place.

New sump gasket fitted and sump bolted in place.
Truth time. I had fitted the strainer and bolted up sump and saw the spring still sitting on the work bench, silly bitch I said to myself and set about undoing all those sump bolts and fitting the spring. Not concentrating !!!!! ::) ::) ::)
