Well, I have finally started getting the parts I need to do this build in earnest.
I see a lot of people rebuilding engines, (I was waiting to score some carbs), and want to know is a complete engine rebuild necessary?
I know how to clean carbs, those don't scare me. I have a Vstar 1100 that I have reworked at least 3x.
I know that the engine has compression. I found this out before I took it down.
Also, I have read where some have redone the electrical as far as igntion/starting goes.
Looking for some friendly advice.
I stumbled upon this...
http://www.ratbike.org/ and am in heaven. I can use a rebuild on the cheap.
Not to worry, I'm not leaving. I'm having wayyyy too much fun;)
