you should have a go at rebuilding your old motor, for if you ever pop this one again, plus when it comes to selling it most like the right motor in the bike
ive been hooning mine around fora few weeks and now ive decided 60 mph is enough for it and it should live for a long time

from what i can work out its a simple motor to work on and with ebay you should be able to collect all the bits you need for pennys, and itll be good to learn something and on the plus side if you get it wrong youve not broken a working engine

Very true ummm ruffsutt (sorry hard to call someone that LOL) I plan on when summer comes to pull it apart and see whats what. but I would have also dameged the cylinder wall and need new barings. Like I said on other threads I am looking at becomeing a auto mehcanic and will be building a few motors from the ground up in a few years since I some major project plans. But yes I get what you are telling me. Also if I was gonna keep the bike for much longer I would do so much. But next year I plan on moving up since insurance will be cheaper. If I can keep it in the family I will but if not oh well. I will not look foward to that cuz its makin me sad. But just a few more plans for the bike for the last two years it will be just fine for me! And this engine was cheaked over by my mechanic (I changed the motor with a buddy of mine and myself). and he said its just great. Great compretion and runs perfect! It will last for many years since now I will be takin better care of this motor. And do my checks far more often.

its all good ive blown up nearly everything ive ever owned hahaha
if you get it apart and it is goosed just rebuild it with the parts there as a learning experience and stick it with the bike when it goes

im watching a few sv 650s atm and need to rebuild this cbr to sell it but im going to try n keep hold of this little one cos its probably the best hop about bike ive had

Mate congratulations on the engine change over. I for one would be very interested in said photos, because knowledge is power after all.

the tapping is from your excess in valve clearance, lack of oil ground down your can and rocker faces!
