Engine In!

Big Tony came round this afternoon........he’s as big as a bear……….. and just picked up the engine..........and now its in! Southern Motors recommend torqueing down the engine bolts to 25Ib, but I will wait until the transmission, engine and rear are all aligned before I do this. Have also fitted the oil tank and battery box, which sits on rubber mounts.

Won't tighten any bolts untill Tranny and Engine are connected.

I was short on two plastic washers which i got from Motor Man in the village.

I starting fitting the Forward Controls together tonight, which includes the rear break cylinder, gear lever, and foot pegs etc. Im really impressed with the quality of this kit, the aluminium and stainless steel is highly polished and all the parts are quality and heavy. If you enjoying polishing.... this is the bike for you!!
