    Another good build. The only thing you need to change, is on any heads that specify to loosen and then retorque the bolts like that, you need to loosen and retorque them one at a time, and not loosen them all at once again. ideally in the exact same order that you torqued them the first time. The idea with that being that the other bolts are holding the basic torque spec, and keeping the head pinned down tight, as you loosen and reset the others more accurately than they were seating the dowels and squishing the gasket.

Lately its been much harder to find for these deals. I did drive 890 miles for the 05 and 1460 miles to Albuquerque. 3 or 4 years ago they were all over for $1000 to $2000 not any more. I did also do the oil mod to the 05 the 08 doesn't need it, but that was my choice its not required, but I didn't want to risk it,

    Why don't you clean those cases up before you re-assemble? It's the perfect time to do it. You really should clean those gasket surfaces off much better than you do. You don't need the gasket sealer if the surfaces are clean. That stuff gets inside the engine and can plug up oil passages. Tiny amounts won't hurt, but using nothing is a better option. Check out Michael Sabo. That guy does it right! (I still love your channel, but your stuff is so dirty). I couldn't work on that without cleaning it first.

    1: parts washer, ultrasonic, anything to clean off old mess, can literally heat grime in threads when reassembled, there’s a reason engine builders have a “clean room” 2: use an oven to heat the cases evenly, good way to warp the aluminum like crazy using a torch 3: get a good set of actual micrometers instead of calipers Great job but if this was a decent car engine.. it wouldn’t last very long lucky clearances in dirt bike ATV stuff isn’t as critical 4: RTV is trash, try yamabond, or another type of thin gasket glue

I drained the stator side oil to replace the stator and never filled it back up with oil because I wanted to see if I had a spark before filling it back up with oil! I let the bike sit in my garage for another 1 week after draining the oil and yesterday I went to kick over the bike and it didn’t kick over! It just locked up and I got no clue why? The bike was never started and stood in the cold for a week and did not crank over! I’ve watched all your videos and seen you fix all your bikes not mattering on the problem! Could you please help me out and let me know if you know what the problem is! Thanks again!
