    Like I said it was not unexpected, so I had my had on the clutch, just in case.

    I have found everything except the rod cap, no idea where it is, it may have been the part that whistled as it went past my leg.
    Nice day, if it doesn't rain...

      Hopefully, that was the demon that infested that bike and you'll have nothing but freshly-paved roads and sand-free corners from now on!

        I doubt it, it was possessed before that engine was in the bike. The original engine spun a rod bearing for the PO.

        As I strip her of all the upgrades and farkles, i am replacing themwith the parts from the other bike, so that it stays sealed and intact. If the engine in the parts bike just needs a new cyl head, then JD MAY try a 3rd engine.
