OK, it may be a Honda Wankbag, but this is still a cool vid.  :)

I know, I know!

Hopefully, by the middle of the coming week, I'll be able to start work on the engine. Then next week, I'll have retrieved the bike (thanks Rusty!  :thumbup ), and can start exciting stuff like trying to fit swingarms.  :D

I never said it would be a 5 minute build!

Have you checked the piston rings in the bores?  Take them off the pistons, fit them into the bores then check the width of the gaps with feeler gauges.  If the original problem was low compression it could have been the rings or could be valve seats.  Fit the spark plugs, turn the head upside down and fill the combustion chambers with a liquid (it's one of the few useful things you can do with diesel) and see if it dribbles out of the ports.

I was expecting teh Benny Hill theme too too.  Sadly not.

I'm impressed how in frequently the guy has to take stuff off to re-do things.

Its good to watch though - sort of thing I do... don't look at the instructions, just get on with it... and then realise you need to undo something to get something else to fit :P
