Hi Brodie, I'm sure you would benefit from the purchase of a drill press. I bought one about 20 years ago and it's the handiest thing in the shop. Keep up the good videos.
@@2wheelworkshop yes I know that feeling. My workspace is a single car garage but it will never see a car in it lol. My xs ran like crap so I made a single manifold and fitted a SU carb. It sounds good but we are in full lockdown and winter so no trying it out. Richie .
bit of bad luck on the engine but it will be better after you go through it. Also I love the safety rope on the center stand. makes sense to do when your shaking everything lifting the engine out
yeah @@2wheelworkshop the center stand would make it handy for services. maybe you could make a low height dirt bike stand to save bolting the center stand on and off.
Bet you found those wheels funny at the start! Nice stand. Hope you have space for the lower case to drop down as I think you have used the engine mounts from the top case
I hope that you don't mind but I was singing your praises on my upload today so I have put a link to your channel in the description. Hope that is ok mate.

Thanks mate. I've got one. It's just behind the camera.
Good work and nice garage layout. Richie.

yeah good point but how often do you plan on taking the engine out?
Fair enough. I also feel the shed pain.

How many miles were on that engine?

@@2wheelworkshop feel free mate
Dude how heavy is the engine? I was thinking about using some straps to help pull it out but you seemed to man handle it pretty easy! Good work
Thanks mate. Couldn't tell you exactly. 60-70kg maybe.
