Motorcycle Rebuild – Day 3

April 11th, 2009 (Motorcycle)

Today, Allen came over and helped me get the engine unbolted from the transmission and up onto the workbench. After trying various methods of propping the engine up from underneath, we decided (Allen’s idea) to just do the ol’ makeshift engine lift and support it with straps from the rafters. It worked out quite well in the end and nothing fell on the floor in the process. Now the fun can really begin. Also, the frame is now almost stripped completely and will soon be sent to Streetwerkz to get the nice powder coat so it’s not as rusty.

   How is the restore going on the BMW? Did you have to purchase a lot of new parts? Are you going to do any custom work on it?
