Dave,
The crank just arrived yesterday afternoon.
I appreciate you working with me on the 2nd rebuild-and giving me the repeat customer discount :lol: ....it looks awesome once again, your work is top notch!
Can't wait to get it back in the bike!

And got a little souvenir to remind what not to do next time :crazy: .

Uhh, bend a rod....duh ;)
Will kick over first few times with Iggy off going forward...to make sure no gas has leaked into the crankcase, causing this to happen again.
Lesson learned!

Kicking overe will NOT clear fuel or oil from a crankcase.....

Others suggested in my "Disaster" thread to kick over a few times prior to starting as you may be able to feel the differnece in pressure if a large amount of gas was present....maybe that advise was not correct? ....need to find the real problem anyway(carb float/angle, petcock leak, ect) and fix it...understood.

Purpose of the original post was to show what an awesome service Dave provides and to thank him. So, thanks Dave! :thumbup:
