Some things fixed and some new problems... mostly problems

Well I got the cylinders on and ain't it a beauty with those black cylinders :)

And with the top on one of them.

 But some problems, the engine stops rotating at a certain point when kicking it, so will probably have to remove the cylinder heads too see what the problem is, might be that the vavles has gotten out sync also so I'm gonna check that first.

Another problem as mentioned before is the clutch arm, it collidies with my new fine battery box :(

But I have another solution now and that is to remove the battery box and raise it as it's lots of space above it, just gonna have to file away the solderings underneath, hopefully I wont have to remove the engine but only the back wheel =/

And the foot pegs that we soldered on because the cogs holding them in position were kinda non-existant,  ah well they are in the way of the foot pedal, can't get it in the right angle now so I'll see how I'll solve that...

But I got a package with some small stuff today, among those a new gasket for the final drive, so now that part is complete at least.

Engine mounted!

So mounted the engine today, feels like a big step in the right direction.

Was a bit worried that the air box would touch the new battey holder but alas to my happiness it did not :)

But another problem appeared instead, the arm that presses in the clutch is to long/far back and touches the battery holder so I couln't mount the clutch arm, need to modify it somehow...

Some other small notes, in progress of repainting the new back suspension as the they were a bit scratched and the color didn't hold that high standards, was a bit lazy so I didn't take them apart.

And I took apart the final drive and the clogs looks to be in top condition, although the nail bearings just falled out, gonna have lots of fun getting them back togheter later...

And for the clutch arm I need to modify it something like this, not the best mspaint drawing but I hope you understand how I mean :S



Big update

It's starting to come togheter!

So the front for is on and polished up.

The front wheel is ready to get on!

Front break is polished up and have new break pads.

Trying to get it together, got a bit low.

But I got it on! A bit hard doing it alone, but now it won't spin :( maybe the break pads were to tight but I lowered them to a minimun... maybe the paint on wheel hub is touching against the break it self. Will take it apart tomorrow or later this week to check where it's to tight.

And a funny view :)

I know the fron fender aint on but it hasn't been repainted yet so it will come on later, even if I have to take off the wheel again...
