So I got bottom end of engine with barrels fitted already with new rings on pistons built top end all torqued to spec in sequence as per manual just fitted pms system no oil in it yet might be a stupid question but when tried to get tdc it’s nigh on impossible to move it any ideas 💡 thanks in...

If I get another project I think she will divorce me😂😂

Not posted for a while the story so far…….. So sent in barrels for honing Still waiting a month now for barrels to come back engineer had an accident outside work so got to wait longer Crank I was trying to find a good used but to no avail found some one to recon a crank In Birmingham England...

Parts money I would say But if you’re splitting an engine down to nut a bolts it’s piece of mind all new parts makes sense To me anyway . takes a bit longer to do and more expensive but if you’re into xs 650s it’s well worth it

🙏 Thanks

Are these still useable or do they need replacement 😞

I’ve blown them through and every other hole I could find thanks 🙏

Story so far split engine down head sent port and polish next crank sent off and barrels for honing
