Removed the seat, tank & the side covers & put them away so, they don't get damaged
Now, this engine has gotta go
...found the master link, sprayed (looked like it had been on there a while) & removed the chain
...took pics & measurements of where the exhaust pipes were mounted
I want remount the exhaust pipes to help maintain the look of the original bike (I need to know where they were without the engine there)
...this engine is mounted on the top-n-bottom & the front-n-back
...& weighs a ton (actually ~ 125 lbs.) (weighed on a bathroom scale)
Removed the engine on July 30, 2017
Next was to power wash the frame/motor compartment
So we have a clean slate to work with
