I found it easier to put the motor together before bolting it in the chassis.  Less chance of scratching up that nice paint job!  Looking good, keep up the good work.

Best bet is to call Wayne & ask.  I'll bet UPS knows their way to his house blindfolded.

Great news on your daughter!

Watch that your wires don't touch the flywheel.  Don't ask how I know.  LOL.

Well I'm about back on track. I was never able to fix that darn flywheel, so I boxed it up along with rest of the motor and sent it off to Wayne, during transit the box apparently came loose and the flywheel sloped out and was lost . Wayne called the local ups place on his end in Alabama and they found it !! Good thing Wayne has no phelon flywheels , only wicos. He ended up having to make a new center hub and also had to straighten the face. That flywheel just would not stop with the trouble. Anyway Wayne called he test fired motor yesterday after a care kit its running good and on the brown truck back to ill.

Wow, it's a miracle they found that flywheel.  I deal with damaged shipments all the time at work & they usually never find missing parts.  Glad to hear Wayne got you fixed up.

At long last, a running engine can't hardly wait to see it back in the frame, maybe then the forks get my attention
