News on the engine!
It's good, but the timing had been badly set, leading to severe detonation which had fucked the valves. All I need is a new cylinder head, which I'm buying off Deefer.
Unfortunately, the engine was sitting on the cam chain. And fucked it. So I'm replacing that too. And I'll check the selector forks while I'm at it.
Considering an R1 tail section too, as Deefer will be selling one soon. Debating whether to fit that, or chop up the original tail fairing.
