Remember folks when you're assembling the clutch look at factory markings for clutch balance. Yellow dot on clutch housing etc. They should be spread apart by 120 degrees. Not sure if you done that on the video. Add a little bit of clutch grease on pressure plate as well and use proper centering tool, it's not expensive not like on video. Can't recommend your job to anyone but still fun to watch.

You can see from this video, this is a fantastic piece of engineering and high quality

Great videos! Im looking at getting one thats in pieces and this helps with where stuff goes and how to tear it down

Great skills, at the end it will be cool looking bike

Хорошее видео и очень полезное

fun watch but grease on your collets to hold them in place, get all your dirty operations done before final assembly (eg tapping exhaust stud threads) and dont use so much loctite.

And adjusting valve clearances ? There is a trick. It is possible to grind the tappets to get correct valve clearance. Quick simple cheap. BTW use coolant for aluminum motors .

Hi, thank for the tip. Valve clearances were good when assembling the engine.

I dont understand why you would tear down the engine that far and not replace the timing chain and guides? I also would have sent the head out to a machine engine shop for cleaning up the head, the valves, guides and cams back in place? A complete valve job.

Great video's! Which paint did you use for the engine block?

@@restorationvalveas a professional decorator, I agree, Rustolem is a fantastic product. Make sure you buy and use the correct thinners

Did you need to use Loctite on any of the hardware? Curious

I’ve put on a little bit of blue ( mild strength) locktite on the brake rotor and calliper bolts, clutch retaining bolts and foot peg assembly bolts

didn't know that you don't have to install crankshafts by markings, simply plag n play...

i liked it until you installed the chain.....what about timing? the cam sprockets were absolutely not aligned,....at first start all work will be for nothing and the pistons will bend your valves with some "nice" metallic bangs.....

Sorry for not showing the chain timing, couldn’t find the footage of it. No need for stress, the first start video is out here kzread.info/dash/bejne/i6B1uLaFoMbVnps.html , just needed to sort out vacuum leaks to run as good as here at the end: instagram.com/p/CVLd1kIFJzm/?
