2008 March 01: Measuring and cleaning (4.50 hours)
Updated:
- Measured the main bearings and the big end rod bearings. Everything measured out very well.
- Took the plug out of the sludge trap in the crank and cleaned it out. It had a little bit in it, no where near full. But, since the engine is this far apart, it only makes sense to clean it completely.
- Disassembled the footboards/lower frame rails and cleaned up all the various bits.
- Removed the brake disks from both wheels. Cleaned up the discs and fasteners.
- Removed the cush drive from the rear wheel. Cleaned up the pieces.
- Removed the front and rear tires from the wheels. Cleaned up the tires and wheels.
