There was me sit at the PC, thinking I could use a couple of bit & bobs for the SV which I'm planning to do the weekend after next.

I've got to change the top end of one engine with the bottom of another, do the calipers (got all the seals here already), give everything a good clean and loob up, and throw it through the MOT.

I'll have a quick look on eBay then, what do I find?

Just listed, SV k2 engine complete with carbs, buy it now price £100

now I'd expect to pay £300 at least and perhaps £400 for a really low mileage one, the mileage on this

2K, yes I said 2K

.

OK, I've got to borrow a motor to collect it from Great Yarmouth, that’s £50 in juice but even so, It's got to be a bargain.

two days engine stripping & rebuilding has now turned into an hours swap out

Cheers Mark.
