Big, big ups to Deefer666. The engine is back in one piece thanks to his help, guidance and staying late to help me. He has endured endless questions and pestering from me, and even tolerated my eye watering n00bishness at times!!
Also, (again, thanks to Deefer!) I have acquired a full fairing (Skidmarx), and so Project Fazer will be fully faired. Things are starting to happen now.
Have you painted the engine christo, or does it just look remarkably shiny?
Re: Project Fazer: The build thread - ChristoT - 18-04-14
No, it looks like a rat's arse, it's getting painted tomorrow.

So I got the engine in today...

Then (to quote a friend), I realised I done fuck up. To make getting the engine in easier, I took out the airbox. Guess how you get the airbox bacvk in? Yup.

That was a bit I tried to do myself, at home (not Deefer's workshop)! Just as well I'm handing the swingarm over to professionals, eh? :rollin :rollin

I was thinking of doing the K&N pods. But it's too much of a ballache for now.

If you un screw the front section of the airbox you can squeeze it in from the generator side, takes a little while to do it but quicker than taking the engine out again.. I did the same thing when I changed the cam chain..

:rollin Cut the air box in half and glue it back together when you have it in place :lol
We have all done something like that over the years and the important bit is to hold on to the sense of humour :lol
Re: Project Fazer: The build thread - ChristoT - 19-04-14
I'm going to try Tony's trick first. I think it's hilarious, though still kicking myself as a jackass. My landlord, who was helping me put the engine in, was less impressed! :lol

Re: Project Fazer: The build thread - fireblake - 22-04-14
Loving this thread. I've often wondered if other people are like me, do you call him Chris to(e)or Christ o. I suppose it depends on what crazy plan he has next. Oh yeah, sometimes I just say Christ no.
Keep on smiling Chris
