Time to dig into the motor and see what's going on.

There's always more to do than what you set out to do. Being new to this, I find myself doing things for the first time and there's always a snag or two that sets me back a couple hours, which means a job that should have taken me two hour takes four hours. : ) I pulled the oil tank off my 64 TR6 for the first time a couple weeks ago to put a new tank on the bike and what held me up was getting that one little tube back in place, the one that connects the oil tank to the tappet feed. I spent way too long trying to get the new tube on the new tank and on the tappet oil line.

love watching you dig into these bikes, really inspires me to get out and make space in the garage to start on some bike projects I have, nothing as rad as you have, but i can hope to get something like them someday. You probably already know this, but one thing I do when i have to do the hasty surface job with the emory cloth and the glass or granite, is I mark the surface of the material with a sharpie or blue dykum before I sand it, that way I can find the high spots quickly and make sure with those long pieces I'm not putting too much pressure on one side when I sand. I hate doing the job only to find a slow seep after putting it all back together. Oh, and I can find phenolic washer kits from a few places, usually hydraulic repair shops (the type that build systems for commercial use, like trucks etc), and McMaster Carr, (they're more expensive though).

The old $5 part $10 shipping is getting a little old, so I'm finding myself making a huge list, but getting by with some redneck engineering.

It is great that you could take any of these bikes out of storage and get them running with just a little work.
