Oh...  I should have taken before and after pics of all the primary gears... going through the ultrasonic cleaner... HOLY CRAP. there was lots of junk on them..


also.

Ran all the clutch hub etc through to get all the alum particals out.


then decided to run the clutch disks through..

...

wowsa you should have seen all the crud that came out of the disks.. 

bet you have the cleanest used clutch plates in the world..

combining my Yamaha R1 bottom end with a K5 top end is a thing of beauty. :-D

Get rid of the R1 before it taints the kawi!!!

Motorrad are you sure you didn't throw gears from another engine in there? I'll see if I can find my manual.
It's hard to keep a drivers license riding a 2 stroke dirt bike on the street.  If you drive within the law they are VERY boring.

I used the manual from my Honda XL100..  he said he didnt want it too fast.. so I figured if I used the manual from a bike that makes about 7HP..   he should be safe...  :|


actually.. joking aside... I didnt use the manual once for oscars motor  :-D

XL100 is close to the same thing right? lol

For the record I only consult the manual when I'm having an issue or when I need torque specs. I've been tinkering with bikes too long to need step by step instructions so I understand Motorrad.

Motorrad don't need no manual because he is a mechanical god!! 

His buisness card reads "I'll call you"

His sweat is used as ladies perfume in some countries

When country singers write songs about him, his dog never dies, his wife doesn't leave him, and his pick up truck ALWAYS runs right.....

He is.....................The most interesting dude in the world!!!!!!

OK so can you remove the Justin Bieber thingy now? :-D hahaha!!

LMAO! I love this site. Never fails to put a smile on my face or make me laugh so hard it hurts.

Can't seem to locate my manual. It's probably in storage. I'm on a quest to find it though. That is the most important book I own.
