Well this is now take two on the great Seeley engine swap of 2015!
First thing was to take the old hunk out of the Seeley. Every person that has ever taken a motor out of a factory frame would be AMAZED how easy it is to get the motor in and out of the Seeley. I know that you can remove the head with the engine still in the frame, so I assume that extra room makes the world of difference.
Dog being the ever helpful hand.
And now stripping down the stock bike.
I am getting good at this part.
No pictures of the stock bike 100% stripped down. Honestly I was just in a zone of getting junk done so didn’t take many pictures.
Just dropped the Seeley right over the engine and presto! Right in!
Much nicer engine.
Now that the heavy lifting is mostly out of the way I need to get all the lines, wires and bolts installed so that I can then run the engine in the Seeley frame for the first time. Might even get extra ballsy and run the bike on the Seeley tank too.
Either way the project is marching forward nicely
