Easy engine install

<< < (2/4) > >>

royhall:
Looks like a full restore. I do the engine first then drop the repainted frame over the engine with it on its side then roll it over on thick carpet. It's easy when it's just a frame and engine, but for removal from an existing bike looks like a neat trick. All looked a bit unsecure though like it could collapse at any point.

Apart from not having the dollies, the crates, the short axle stands and having given away my son's weightlifting kit when he left home, I've got everything I need except that much clear flat space. It's probably a good idea in Australia, where your nearest help is an hours drive away but I live in Brentwood and need someone to blame when it doesn't go to plan. I'll wait for my friend Bill to come over.

I put my engine on its side with wooden chocks to keep it level.
Underlay to protect the frame lower it over the engine, me and the wife did it simples ;) ;D

Looks like a bit of a faff to me, the engine on it's side is my preferred method.

Cheers
