Take pics with the phone as well. That way you can feel like a dill in private. Make sure you remember you've taken them. Don't ask about that one either..

That's if the engine is an original whole unit. After I posted previous, I realised they may be an add on over the years. Most of the bikes parts I have added are /6 and /7.

Mmmmm. Thanks Rob. When I bought the engine, the guy said it was from a bad drop with no damage to the motor, but he had no idea of its history. I'll check with Mr Vernier this morning.
