Yep, hoping your crank is not like an LP record for grooves :o as that's one of the eventuality this oil and wear situation produces.
Fingers crossed for good outcome.

Rotor off tomorrow hopefully then I'll be able to see tge extent of the wear a bit more, fingers crossed! Is there a point at which engine wear isn't salvageable, I might as well prepare myself🤣

All engines are salvageable, it is just down to cost ;)

Received my replacement hub from Andy yesterday, it certainly looks like the correct part and a few measurements all match up and plenty of lining left so fingers crossed that's one thing sorted. I'll wait until I get stainless spokes before relacing it, bigger fish to fry with the engine I think but at least while it's stripped I'll have the perfect opportunity to paint the cases etc. Simoniz engine enamel or its Diuplicolor equivalent?
DomP:
I don't think I intend keeping the Motad exhaust and the seat (which I think isn't from an F) that came with my bike, are they worth much in fairly good condition?
