Putting everything back together after rotating the engine. Is it possible to misalign the engine this much when tightening everything up :?:

Rotate the rear wheel in the forward direction...

How many washers behind the FST?

That made it look a bit better, no overhang on the engine side now, and just 2mm on the outside. I've got 1.5mm washers on the inside of the studs (which I didn't have before, it was slightly rubbing on the exhaust strap). Maybe it'll sort itself out once it's all back together :?: :?:

I'd just like to say that I'd be totally screwed without this website :!: :!: :P

(Maybe I'm a bit paranoid, but it's not like bolting up an old jap UJM, and I never took them to the track afterwards :ill: )

And while I'm on a roll, I hope it wasn't Erik who designed the rear silencer mount so that you have to disconnect the fecking oil line to get it off :!:
