my strip came to a hault due to work commitments.

today i finally dropped the engine out removed front forks tomorrow i will remove rear shock split frame and swing arm.

then its off to powder coating.

had a VERY stubborn engine mount bolt.....rounded allen key head off...screwed a pair of footprints shifting it.....it fonally gave up 45mins later with a pair of stilsons on it.

engine is going off to mates to have valves checked. from what i can see i have 1 very black looking valve :-/

gotta purchase some new bolts etc etc new bearings etc etc then i can start re-building.
