I have never read that book, or any other book :o

Thanks. I got the bottom bit off so I'll do the top from the left (as I did the bottom on the right!!) tomorrow. I do like reading a good manual before doing work (nerd alert). Also your engine stand is finally being used!! I'll probably be in touch over the next few weeks as I'll be needing some engine work doing I suspect. The bike has a K6 with the K1 in bits (no idea why tbh at the moment).! So I'm looking to rebuild the K1 and get her back to her former glory (and have matching engine/frame etc). Cheers.

Now looks more like a 'naked' bike after a few choice words with the carbs and oil filter!!!! Bloody bolt was rounded and wouldn't budge without a chisel!

Good luck with your project, do you have the spec for your engine stand? I could do with one of those for my K7 engine rebuild.

Trigger may be along soon to offer to flog you one - I can recommend them, weirdly, as well as my CB750 mine also fit my CL450 engine.
