I picked up this bike several months ago. Was over priced, but cheaper than all the others, and for good reason. Had tons of mechanical and electrical issues. The engine had been rebuilt, poorly, cylinders spray painted black, and had a head gasket leak that the PO masked with rtv. Rode it as is, but had trouble shifting out of 5th when hot. Finally the leaks got bad enough and I pulled the engine and threw another in. As luck would have it, I seized that engine a few weeks ago when the pushrod seal popped. So here we are.
Couple things I noticed:
- cam chain had been replaced, clip master link installed backwards
- kickstart spring seems to be sitting just on the edge of the case, and appears to have slipped off previously
- a deformed spacer on the rt side of the countershaft. Is this out of place? It's certainly not supposed to be bent.
That's all for now.
