Here we go
« on: April 19, 2009, 08:36:25 PM »
Finaly got round to stripping the C90 this weekend ready to respray and fit the new engine.

before.

That explains why the headlight didn't work

140cc and 14 BHP in a box

old engine out.

Current state of play another couple of hours and the forks and swingarm will be off then its time to clean it up ready for painting.

Just a quick update, rebuilt the front forks today and put them back on the frame. The head bearings were a real tw@t, It hadn't occured to me when I took them apart that I'd have to put them back :o. that should be the worst job over and done :thumbsup:



Didn't have any Hovis handy will a bottle of beer do?
