Motor tear down has begun!! (xs250 xs 250 engine disassembly/rebuild thread)
Hey guys me and my brother pulled the motor out today and started the tear down Nah its not that daunting just ive never pulled down a motor before and neither has my brother. You may remember a post i made a while ago about the 2nd gear being knackered, well this is all an effort to get to the gear box and replace the worn part and anything else that we find on the way that needs attention. Im planning to do a reasonably detailed log of the tear down in this thread with plenty of photos. So hopefully it may be of use to someone later down the track. Ill be documenting it in 'stages' each stage will represent a session of work from start to finish. Wish me luck!!
EDIT: The reassembly thread can be found here >>> http://www.xs400.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6874&highlight=tear+begun
STAGE 1
So far it has been pretty straight forward. We did hit a bit of a problem that stopped us, so i already need HELP from you guys!!!....ANY help and advice is of course GREATLY appreciated....More on tthe prob after i show you what we have done and where we are up to.
OK so motor is out obviously:
