Made a start tonight on reassembling the motor...got the crank,mainshaft and final drive assembled in the top case. It is probably going to be several months before it (hopefully) runs..i am using graphogen and engine oil as lubricants? It's a great feeling when parts start going back together!...so far anyway! :)
Crispy:
Today I got most of the engine internals fitted into the crankcases, I'm now waiting for a few o rings to arrive before closing the cases up..what are your thoughts folks on the oil catch tray that directs oil onto the drive sprocket? ...I've read that it can be quite messy...Can it be left out?

Mines still there turned down to its minimum.
It does get oil on the back wheel but I can live with that as I do give the bike a bit of stick. In the 5 years and almost ten thousand miles I have never needed to adjust the chain :)
Oil on the rear wheel is a good thing in my eyes it keeps the chrome nice
By the time the rear wheel is black the bike needs cleaning anyway.
Trigger:
I always fit the oil plate and cap off the oil outlet with a O'ring ;)
Green1:
Why do that Graham there not your bikes to clean in the future.
Think of all those pennies you could have saved. ;D ;D
