the victom

tapped and screwed.....the v pulley is one with the crank pulley...now only thing left is to get a bit longer crank bolt ....im rather sure there is going to be no radiator to move or not much '''everything else is up in the air ...once new bolt is in the engine.... its ready to put back in bike ...good stator now ... pulley on engine for alt mod or something else ...the load has been releaved from the crank bolt now so all this done on this pulley :builder: :thanks:
 
ok im very pleased with the results on the pulley install ....today im going to hope i can get bolt close by for crankshaft ... and just put motor back in ...i couldnt push the roller frame to the building by myself ...some touch up work to do on timing covers ...going to retension the belts a bit ..though there very close now after all the miles on it ....
 
well no bolt to be had around here ...its a 12mm extra fine thread...stock is a 1 1/16 shaft and grade 10 bolt....i need 9/16" longer one ..but 1 1/2" shaft bolt would do fine ... :rant:

engine ready to go ...cleaned all the mill work from front covers belt pulleys and all ..retension the belts ....and rough milled the cuts i made and got good clearence for belts now

image.php

i like my hub cap ...motor going back in bike....the covers actually fit great ..its just what they fit to is unseen .....they cut to the flat line ..meaning it could be fill in to fit tight around pulley rather easy ..... :builder: :thanks:
 
Nice work joe !! I've had my ready for external alternator for about a year or so now, one of my riding friends noticed it and said, Mike, you threw a belt, I said no, I just hadn't decided whether to add air conditioning or power steering yet. :shock: :whistling: :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy:
 
ok ive got only a few things to say here....it is foolish to take a motor out of a wing on gravel driveway with steep incline.....and no sky hook ...sheesh bike fell 2 times ...im totally wore out ... if it wasnt for my wife finallly helping me ...i dont think the motor would be in now .... sheesh dont ever try this ... :Doh2: oh well i lived through it ..time to :builder: :thanks:
