Hello there, I'm Chris from Amsterdam, and recently found a nice dismantled engine lying around in a barn. The PO had it from someone else, who broke a piston on it. The top end, as well as the clutch and the sides came off, and I collected it as in the photo.
A bag of bolts and dirt.
But I have hope! I can do this. However I will probably need your help at points. I already ordered a gasket kit, and the workshop manual came in today. Started cleaning out the bolts, and I started rebuilding the clutch.
My previous experience with motorcycles is based around old Honda's. Did some top end rebuilds with CB750s' and I'm working on a total bigbore rebuild as well. I have a little loveshack called Tin Can Customs. It's a freehaven for folks who build motorcycles, where I share my knowledge, learn from others, and watch the new fanatics improve their skills.
While building on my own contraptions. Because that's what I like most, and I guess that's what we all have in common.
Good to be here! Hope to talk to you soon.
Regards, Chris Dekker
