Engine testing out of frame

(1/3) > >>

UK Pete:
I recently got a lovely genuine 9000 mile F1 engine, 4 years ago i bought the whole bike minus engine  , the guy bought the  bike for the engine then sold me the rest , anyway having never used the engine he contacted me and asked if i was interested in buying the engine
So i have a lovely 1976 9000 mile f1 in bits , i
Iifted the rocker cover and it's immaculate so clean, I decided as I have about 10 engines to do I might as well build a portable test rig
I have lashed together a functionable rig and will give my engine a test
Its not finished yet and it will have fan cooling and temperature gauge and oil pressure gauge, it uses a full set of electrics so I can test every thing from alternator to switch gear check the loom , regulator and rectifier etc
Also I can dial in the carbs get them spot on
when I am done I will have an attempt at painting the engine in one piece  then on too the next engine

A man after my own heart Pete..That's what I want to do for my CB250/350K engines. I don't think everyone will agree with us though, as I found here in this post :-

Not got a single word to say on the subject. ;)

Did that once on a VW beetle engine and gearbox in the back garden.

Neighbours were not impressed.  ;)
