Spitfire:
I remember it well, picking up all of the F1 powder coated parts, exciting stuff.

I rebuilt the 750 up in the bedroom and it sat at the end of the bed while I put the engine back into the frame etc. Mind you I had an understanding girlfriend at the time...even when she found a metal shard...with her foot!

UK Pete:
Ha Ha Yoshi, that reminds me of when i was renting a room at a mates house, i rebuilt a Yamaha DT400 in my room, i also had the whole top end of a 3500 v8 rover in there, my landlord / mate knocked on the door once for the rent i let him in he was gobsmacked he left the room and made the comment you need a women.
i am sure i have a picture of the messy room somewhere if i find it i will scan and post it  just for a laugh
BTW i bet that was real heavy to lift out of your room when done

Yoshi823:
To be quite honest Peter it was easier between three of us to carry it down like this...


than to try and carry the bare engine down between two of us....

plus it was nicer to work on the bike in the warm bedroom than outside where there were no lights at the time.

Spitfire:
Looks like Hailwood in the background !
