After three attempts I managed to put the engine case together. I noticed a couple of odd things. When I tightened the 4 small bolts at the rear near the kick starter the shaft was very hard to move. I backed them off and added some thread lock. Any idea why I can't tighten these up?
Also, when I turn the crank it is much harder to turn near top dead centre. This seems to be normal in bikes I have worked on. Is this normal? Why is it harder to turn the crank near TDC?
Cheers, Doug
