top tube frame mod

<< < (3/3)

Bryanj:
If you remove all the correct bits and get the engine at exactly the right angle they do come out with no frame damage, when it was a common thing(late 70'S) due to bad services causing cam damage I could do them on my own but that was a long time ago and what with arthritis and Guinness consumption I could not even remember what to take off the engine, never mind attempt the job!!!

MarkCR750:
Getting the frame back over the engine is really easy with the engine on it’s side, no struggle at all so although it’s always wise to protect the newly painted frame it goes on so easily its  almost unnecessary to protect, I can’t speak for removing the engine using the “on side” method because I stupidly removed the engine with the bike vertical and struggled like mad!.

Moorey:
Even though I seriously considered doing it. Now I wouldn't by a bike that had, had it done. Its a short cut done for those racing and having regular top end work done
