R6 build. Yes, an R6!

[Marshy]

I might've gone mad, but lately I've been really missing my R6. It's totally probably rose-tinted longings for ye good ol' days, but once it got in my head, it stuck. So this happened today:








Meet Yoda, the R6.

Much good bits. Looks pretty mint, yeah?






Looking good!







This is the only damage:





Ooooh bummer!! Cracked block. This is not uncommon on an R6 with stator cover damage. However, we managed to repair the last one, so stay tuned and let's see how I go with this one!

Nice to see nick is building me an r1... :P hahahah
At least the block doesnt look displaced around the crack on the r6, should be weldable. Low km too

Now if I could only find my flywheel puller from the last time we did this, I'd be on my way. Still planning to give it a run at ARDC next week

Talk about lucky.... just as I start to build an R6, Adam lists all the parts I recommended that he order for his R6 a year ago. What a happy coincidink. Picked them up today: http://tarmactalk.com/forum/showthre...-16-Race-Parts

[Marshy]

Flywheel off yesterday. Just trying to work out which bits are moulding marks and which are cracks.....

Forgot pics of the dremel prep, so you'll just have to use your imagination. Almost sorted now. Just a bit of tidying up to go.

Looks like it just needs welding up properly around that lower bolt and dowel hole. Pain in the arse tho
