I'll see how the engine looks. I might. I have a few buffers and was thinking I'd at least polish the sh*t out of the valve covers. Yep...I'll post photos of the prepping of the new motor and the reinstall.

Great job

Ive got that same engine lift, one of those same engine stands and even have a Suzuki bike myself.

I didnt know you could lift the engine out like that so thats new to me but very good to know.

I took mine out with the tranny attached. I polished everything up before re-installing too. Also cleaned the engine bay really good too. I gotta figure out this photo thing so I can post my pictures on here.

Still no permission. Maybe I don't have enough forum posts or something?
