1975 400/4 project
Sprocket:
So the engine is buttoned back up! No massive problems putting it back together. Last evening I cleaned up the exhaust studs and put the good ones back in. One was 'short' and one was an M6 bolt, so I've ordered replacements.
Looking forward to cleaning up the carbs, I have a Crusinimage kit I'll be breaking open in a couple days. Few jobs left to do before I fit the engine; new rear tyre, paint the rear wheel spokes, repair the master cylinder as it's puked it's guts all over my floor....
Then I think the real work starts!
Laverda Dave:
Good progress Sprocket👍.
I have the master cylinder to rebuild on my 400/4. That's going to be fun, the hardest part is removing the circlip. I modified an old pair of circlip pliers to do the job on the m/cyl a couple of tears ago.
Keep the photos coming.

I shed a few tears myself, trying to remove that circlip...

I have two master cylinders, so I can practise and cock one of them up while I polish my technique! :o
