The Engine

The Engine

The first thing to do was to fix the engine after snapping the cam chain. The damage was a bent valve, snapped cam chain and unfortinetly some of the engine casing broke away. However, the piston ect were fine

Once we had put the engine back together, me and my dad re-painted it black, to meet the original factory standards.

Next step. Dismantling the frame.
