hi

Did you need any special tool?

nice vid

@wernopurno

I used a flywheel puller to get the flywheel off and a standard puller to split the cases. I also used a freezer and heat for installing the crank bearings in the cases as they are a really tight fit. Other than that all the tools are standard.

quality mate.. how long did it take you ?

@yomrjt

Thanks, it took around three months just working in the evenings. Most of the time was spent trying to find the parts at a good price, once I found a new crank and cylinder the rest was easy.
