Did you get all the parts you need?

The camshaft can be in any condition as long as the decompressor mechanism is still working! Please do NOT try to remove it yourself!

Background: I have a fairly neat but very high mileage 2000 model DR650SE and a customer's wreck with nothing much usable left of its engine. Both bikes are papered and paid up. Plan: I build a brand new engine using the old casings. I replace everything inside. Nikasil, piston, rings, con rod...

Sold to Tony, I hope you will do as many happy kilometres asIdid - and more!

Not quite. I had that issue many years ago with my VF1100C. I bypassed the pump when it died and thought I ride the bike on gravity feed and just keep it close to full all the time. The bike would randomly splutter and sometimes die all together from fuel starvation even with the tank filled to...

Generic fuel pumps used to cause all sorts of issues on these bikes. Been there, done that, bought three and had only two working fine. 1983 Honda VF1100C. The pump must be designed to work on a carb with no return feed to the tank. Back in the days Pierburg made nice little rotary vane pumps...

The easy way,used by me for the last three decades, is to use a readily available Pozidriv driver or bit to work on JIS screws. They are virtually identical. The only difference is in the design of the tool tip. The difference is irrelevant this way aroud. A Pozidriv tool will fit into a JIS...

1970s Diesel Mercs of my student days ran happily on heating oil. I remember having patched up a badly rusted 200D together with my two cousins in the early 1990s. Finished at 1AM and decided to "quickly" drive down to the Costa Brava in Spain for a few days of beach fun & party. Just to find...

By the way: That's the bike. https://wilddog.net.za/threads/one-year-on-a-dr650se.23390/ Further mods since then: Dinesh did the seat for me with more foam and a custom two colour cover. I fitted one of the famous Le Cap bash plates. It comes with the bike. I just took it off for cleaning and...

Starts fine, runs fine, everything works.

It is priced to sell but I am not throwing it away. I want to get rid of three of my six bikes. I do not ride a lot anymore and maintaining the whole lot is just taking up too much of my time. The little Honda it seems is already gone. Not sure about the other bikes. I want to sort out my old C...

It's not new but I'd say it is pristine for its mileage and age. You find plenty of bikes which are three years old with a quarter of the mileage looking like wrecks.

Bit lacking once it goes beyond really good, fast gravel and rather fragile if dropped. And a maintenance nightmare if you have to do valve clearances ::)
