Teared up.

I torn down the bike yesterday. Not a complete tear down, just the necessary parts to swap the power plant. That’s right – Power Plant, cause it’s like 17 crazy horsepower or some huge number like that. It only took my about an hour and a half to do, working solo. In the process I learned that the brackets for the clutch cable are smaller on the new engine than on the old one (you can see the difference in the pics below). So, I’m pretty sure I have to swap them out. Maybe I don’t though. I’ll ask. If so, it’s no big deal… should be plug and play.
Doing some cleaning and painting of bits and pieces on the new engine this week and hopefully I’ll be able to pop it in over the weekend.
