after yesterdays failed attempt to get to Cornwall i was not going to waste the rest of the day, went to see a complete engine that was for sale on ebay.....
came from a cat B write-off seller had pictures and it did not look too bad, mileage 44,000, with service history,engine out of the bike so cant hear it running,has compression,gears select,no broken studs and no play in the lay shaft bearing :thumbup ...looks a little scruffy as has see a few winters , £200 including carbs and coils...
the plan is to fit the engine to keep the bike on the road and rebuild the original when i get time...will try and start the new engine before fitting to make sure its OK...
