Well last time I posted I said I would be onto the engine rebuild next.
I have rebuilt the little 4k 1300cc engine with a fast road cam and a have located a 2 inch stainless muffler for 30 quid.

Then I got distracted and decided to build an engine stand to test run the engine after all it went through the floods 4 years ago and has never ran since .
I got a little carried away with the test bed









There is an oil pressure gauge to go in

I now have it all wired in and have started it for the first time

You tube vid uploading now will post when done.
