Engine assembly with a broken ankle





 

Bike 2 engine refurb continues


t


Been a while but Ive rebuilt the engine from scratch, all parts thoroughly cleaned, new bearing shells, new conrod shells, piston bores are fine, pistons cleaned checked. puttin git all back together. These engines are pretty much bullet proof, wear and tear is not really present, this engine looks like its done only 20k. I ve had it for 14 years in the shed sitting there. VFR rc36 parts are common and still cheap as chips. Ive made a sump pan gasket, I scanned the pan then drew round it and the holes using corel draw, then transfered it to a brother scan and cut machine and cut it out- pretty accurate.
