Re: MK2 removing engine from frame - odd size washer

Be careful, the little brass looking plug is expensive new, you will have a shock if you have to buy one, very easy to knock it on re assemble or removal of the engine, if you can take it out, wrap it up and place in a sealed bag, hang up and don't loose it.

Hope the new owner enjoyed her...

Re: Mk2 starts but wont rev

Hi I had a similar problem with the two MK 3 after re build, re bore and carb cleaning. Luckily I had a spare bike so changed parts until I got to the bottom of the problem, mine was the carb, I found that the bike was getting too much fuel, worked this out by running the bike with the fuel switched...

Re: Latest rebuid

Profit ! Dirty word, no, if I break even and it goes to a good home then I'll be happy, keeping the last MK 3 to ride, really happy with that one and it's got dirty.

Re: Latest rebuid

The water pump was probably the most awkward part of the re build, it looked like the water pump had seized and the plastic cog behind the shaft in the engine was spinning. New shaft and propellor . £75.00 Seal and bearing kit . £45.00 First seal lea...

Re: Latest rebuid

Very, very, very nice I must say, I admire good work :BB But how much so far for all the work carried out (not labour), are you keeping a record of costs. Any reason you did not bright zinc the nuts and bolts plating. Cost has been horrendous on this one, good parts are getting harder and harder to...

Undo caliper and take it around the fork leg and refit it.

Nothing worse than falling off and catching the hose.................

Is that a bit of OCD I can sense there, :shock:
