The engine's back in the frame but...

Drew400:
Thanks again all,

I too spotted the same length bolt in the parts manual, despite the experiences of others to the contrary.

Cheers,

D.

Drew400:
A couple more photos now that the engine is fitted (and tightened up) in the frame.

I've also ordered some nice shiny new bolts. I'd forgotten that the sump was held in by less than 11 bolts and the breather cover had a mixture of flanged bolts and assorted other rubbish.

I hope this bike appreciates all the effort I've put in to try to make her look gorgeous and work well (that's a plea to the rebuild gods pre-start up)!

Cheers, D.

paul G:
Looking well Drew 8)

Drew400:
Thanks Paul,

We're at the 'statue stage' (i.e. it would now look fine in the lounge as a piece of art and wouldn't dirty the floor).

I'm hoping to get it to the animated stage at some point and will of course then update this forum.

Cheers, D.

Lobo:
Looking fantastic Drew ... all very gratifying from this stage onwards.

Glad to see the loom in nice & early.

I'm sure we're all waiting with bated breath to hear your forthcoming trials & tribulations with the airbox / manifold fitment - when you do write it up remember ladies are present!

And bikes do look fine in the lounge...well, my dad's anyway...

Simon.
