RE: Project Retail Theropy

Update:

Still in same state, except engine is in pieces. I moved from Brisbane, to Canberra, then broke up with the missus, then moved to NSW (Queanbeyan West) and now I need to buy garage doors from people that don't want to show up to quote me before I continue with the project.

Sux....

Anyway.. All will be continued when I get some doors :-/

Hey buddy, good to have you back. Sorry to hear about the break-up, and the move to Queanbeyan

All the best with the doors, and at least you have the 600rr right.

Another update:

Noone will show up to quote me for doors :guns:

I will have to make do with my living room..... it's good to be single

i need a flywheel holder before i can continue, and need some mic's and calipers too - mine seem to have wandered off to the social club for wayward tools.

That's an impressive workshop Mr Roobars. I too am now a single man and i'm loving every minute of it.

Is it still a once a fortnight job or will you have more time now it's sitting in the living room staring at you begging to be man handled?

Therapy , or treatment, is the attempted remediation of a health problem, usually following a diagnosis. In the medical field, it is synonymous with the word "treatment". Among psychologists, the term may refer specifically to psychotherapy or "talk therapy"........?

Congratulations. Now when you can handle being drunk AND working on the beast all will be well.

After long last, and a free weekend... I made another start (just a little one).

Just to bring everyone up to speed with what was done between moving interstate, technically did that twice :dodgy: Here's what's happened...

Lived in Brisbane with This.. Not too shabby at all..

Then I crashed :dodgy: and purchased an unpainted fairing for $300

??? (pics missing - media server went kaput)

Then I crashed :dodgy: then I thought why not rebuild it...

and this happened..

and then I got a job on the mines and packed it up...

then I bought this...

which I still own and love..

then I moved to Canberra... ERROR! :bootyshake:

And started on the engine after making a bench out of saw horses and waterproof ply
??? (pics missing - media server went kaput)

then moved to Queanbeyan :headbang:

and built this workbench...

and this weekend I did this...

I will need a clutch center holder of some description to remove the clutch - anyone used the universals for this task? like from supercheap?

I am a little concerned about the UNEVEN wear on the bearings.. thats not normal in these engines is it? like... wear on oposite sides of the bearing but not all around it. Seems strange to me. comments? opinions? on draglines uneven bearing wear means chatter and eventually snapped shaft :O but that on a much larger scale.

I am going to have to group everything in ice cream containers before I do anything else, I am out of space.

anyway, thats my story.... good chat.[hr]
and here is the best possible picture you could ever put on a choke cable...
