Time for a clean up

All work so far has resulted in getting covered in black oil and gunge, so have a good clean up with white spirit to get rid of as much as possible to enable working a bit cleaner.

 Inside the engine casing after a clean up.

 - and outside, - still a few bits hanging on - cleaning out the fins around the casting edges edges was a pain. Had to saw off one of the brake shoes as it was stuck fast.

Spent a bit more time on getting the front casing nice and clean as its the one you can see when its in the machine!
Kickstart assembly seems fine so leaving that in there for now.
Well, unbelievably, I'm almost in a position to start rebuilding and replacing a few bits - the downside of that is that Ill have to dust down the old wallet and go and spend some money - amongst other things ill need some bearings, clutch plates, piston & rings, probably a new chain if I cant reuse this one. etc.
