lol Yh mate to be fair I done everything with an 8,10,12 ratchet piece and a little pair of plyers , super easy and straight forward just follow the manual , plus I’m doing two so once I do on the first the second one is done without even looking in the manual !! Result I would recommend to anyone it’s not difficult as long as you have a bit of time an space , just bought the full gasket kit for 36€ and free next day delivery lol just waiting on it now
The loose oil-pump gear is on replacement engine? I thought that was installed in bike now?
Only edges of that clutch-basket gear is mininally damaged. It’s just flesh wound!
Should drop bore-scope down sparks hole in both engines and inspect their bores.
Need to do more objective testing and measuring of these engines to determine their actual condition before tearing them apart. This is extreme procedure requiring lots of precision and skill that most pro garages won’t even attempt. It is possible you will end up with 3rd engine that’s worse than either of these two. I really don’t recommend you do it.
lol I got no skill and just a 40£ ratchet set, it was super straight forward to be fair, just need time and space but really was no issue
Yh i think that’s the first time I’ve ever heard that lol my misses wouldn’t agree! No I think just not any overthinking and just following the manual ! I can’t wait to get her running now
