Alright guys..

Thought I'd pop in and say hello..

Hope you're all well and still upright. Not been on the bike since end of September really when I had my week and half around Wales England and Scotland on it.

But work is under way to having a complete bike again.. Hope to put it the engine back together on Saturday and back in the bike on Sunday. With 'light refreshments' in the evening on Saturday obviously.

I got it all apart and took the gears out and the dogs on the 6th gear on the output shaft that slide into the second and third gears were.. Umm... SLIGHTLY worn

But the receiving part on the second and third gears seemd fine so a new gear pinion going on

Many thanks to Squirrel and Mac99 for helping me get the engine out and to start stripping it. Looking forward to the weekend lads??

Have a ganders.

Looks like the dog has the right idea.

Dan, if you're planning on smacking the crap out of 2nd gear with that hammer, you've got to find it first...

Have the dogs buried any bits in the back garden yet?
