EXCELLENT ! That welder knows his stuff too.
Pictures as she goes back together would be nice too !
Good news is always welcome !
:)

Yup... that looks kool , well worth the try at least .......:D

and .way better than a new engine ! :eek:

Be interested to see how she goes after a few runs...

That'll work! :)

OK...now that is a very cool color...love it. is it flat or gloss? glad to see you got the engine welded...hopefully it didnt affect any tolerences inside the engine and it runs again....should anyway...nice job.

So the work is coming to an end, I've been doing a more or less complete runover on the engine and bike, such as valve adjustment, sparkplugs, all gaskets and oil seals, air cleaner (complete box), new seat, frontfork repainted, new fronttire (Pirelli Diablo), wheel bearings etc. Hopefully I will recieve the last needed gaskets later this week, and the final reassembling can be done.

I also hope it didn't affect any of the inside tolerences as well as I hope it will keep the oil inside the engine!;)

It's a flat rubber surface, the previous owner was a car-painter.
