Will Matt-EUC... Make it Round AR14?
 
I've taken the banter out of the Attendance thread as it'll run and run- andrew

I for one, will be on the Strom. Because the SV is in the garage in a bazillion pieces.

Also, anyone got a spare 650 engine??

You collecting them or something? You have 2 already lol

Seriously though, why not either sell off the parts or start a rebuild project on the old engine ;)

I haven't decided if I'll go on the SM-T or the R3R yet...lots of twisties may make me feel a little left out with the Rocket....although it would be good catching up again and again...

£150 postage!! I don't think so

Re: Will Matt-EUC...
 
I have an sv engine, but you ain't having it as I will be rebuilding it shortly* to go back in my sv.

One of us will be on the ZZR14, one of us will be on an SV, or a VRaptor1000. You will have to wait and see who is riding what!

*read whenever I move house.

Why not try a rebuild Matt, lots to learn and as you have the wee strom you have loads of time...

Bought and collected. Now I need to work out how to get the old one out :/ I can't even see how the air box comes off.

Workshop manual?

Take pics before removing parts, keep all the bits and pieces ideally on magnetic trays but atleast some tupperware and get busy...permanent markers can help pairing up fixings once separated etc etc.....learning on the job is fun :)

So is this engine fitted yet

Matt-EUC 02-02-14 10:31 PM

Re: Will Matt-EUC... Make it Round AR14?
 
Not yet. need to source a grinder to remove a very corroded exhaust clamp. Then I only have 4 bolts holding the engine in. Should be running by the weekend.

I had briefly considered taking to the AR but I have other obligations regarding the Strom.

andrewsmith 02-02-14 10:39 PM

Re: Will Matt-EUC... Make it Round AR14?
 
Hammer and a masonry chisel
