Stripped down engine today,got to dig deep into pockets. Hub badly scored,brake shoes knackered,clutch plates and corks need replacing,etc.Engine stand was a cheap buy. Good job iv'e got lots of time on my hands.

fossy, most of us have done similar things in our time, at least you spotted it, before you put the engine back in the frame. That's one of the reasons I don't like anyone around when I'm building/ tuning or assembling, not for hiding knowledge, but too easy to get distracted!. Good luck with your build. All the best. Jim☺

fozzy, looks like your getting there, keep up the good work. I have a proper spray gun etc and only use it on big parts or if I have LOTS of small parts as I find it too much hassle setting it up and cleaning it afterwards.Spray cans work for me too!😀 All the best. Mij☺

Instead of using a spacer, couldn't you use two of the wider pieces of the rims together?

Cheers Face,got a spray gun at work which my brother in law is teaching me to use.The spacer is used to align the back wheel with the front,i bought it as a kit from SIP.The swing arm was cut to suit.

Finally the engine is back in the frame and the panel has been cut.Ordered a few parts from Beedspeed to replace the rusted ones.
