Engine will be built using genuine gaskets everywhere except the water pump housing. i've bought loads of stuff and duplicated a few things so will be having a sale once bike is completed as i've just added up the cost of all the engine parts and remedial work and nearly had a heart attack.
Crankcases £330
Head £220
powervales £110
Nos Cutch basket, release plate and clutch plates £170
Crank rebuild and barrels replated £600
Kips Pulleys £108
Rose joints for linkages £25
Gaskets, seals, nuts bolts, and studs about £170
Aqua Blasting £125
Bllody hell i shouldn't add this up it's making me light headed

Looking good that Daz... You must of spent many a lonely night on the computer sourcing those bits. Looking forward to more pickies.
Remember , you can't take the money with you so may as well enjoy it whilst you can. !!

the internet can be very lonely....
...I'd be too busy thinking up what smart alec comment I could stamp into the engine number space
I'd probably settle on KR250BE-000001 add some resale value to the resto
