Lets not go into it here, this is ferris's build thread. But I don't really know what the end result will be yet, I mostly want to compare internals to see what is possible.

Well the gearbox is back in. What a bloody nightmare trying to lift it back in on my own. Nearly dropped it on my face a few times :lol:

Just waiting for a oil seal from suzuki and il be back on the road.

Tip top job bud! Pleased its almost sorted.

It is a mess on trying to get the box in alone i found. It either goes in dead easy or takes ages of jiggling and wiggling till your arms feel like they are gonna drop off.

Yeah i definitely felt like i'd been to the gym after :lol: . I had to use a crow bar to push the engine forward for the box to fit back in.
