Lovely job. I usually lay the engine on its side and lower the frame over it.
question for you
Back when this was built did they have 10 w 40 in motorcycles????
If not then what was in use then? Should be in it now
I have had more than one NUMPTY think it a good idea to use Fully synth in airheads, one used that total pish Zero W 5 and another used 5W30
to say that it PISHED out every where and sounded like an out of adjustment pair of Krauser heads would be an understatement!!!!
My Advice is to go with the "period" oil viscosity (Which may well be 10W40 Becuase I iz too young! )
Looking forward to more
Anyway, hurry up I can't wait to hear it
All this work to ride in to trees,
Bushes,
Rocks,
Mud,
other competitors,
big holes and anything else that inconvieniently appears in front of you.
Anything's better than doing the bloody garden.
Thanks.
The Whitehawk is still in you possession?
Coming on nicely........
AND...We have a couple of those poxy blue plant pots.....I didn't buy ours, I bet you didn't buy yours......
I love this stuff, please keep it coming......
I have MP forks on mine and they're shite but at least comply with strict pre 65 criteriaMy mate has just put some REH forks in his C15
They are a work of art and work very well
REH are eligible for pre65 and they're great
Not cheap though

Great thread Mark taking me back to when i used to work on those engines myself, great motors.
Reference the plate on top of the gearbox cover. A situation could arise where one of the
gearchange pawls got jammed in the selector plate stopping the cover being removed and
it was one way round the problem to do what has been done to yours allowing access to push the pawl back.
The reason for the jamming was, that the pawls were retained by a split pin which could wear away and let go,
so allowing the pawl aided by it's spring to pop up through the selector plate stopping the end cover coming off to repair
the now not working gearchange mechanism.
Looking forward to further installments
Yes I know that but they cost more than many complete twin shock bikes
