After another late night & a very early morning in my workshop, the engine (with a struggle) is out & on the bench ready to be worked on.

Oh no!!!! Wasn't expecting that. The valve springs are below the length that Aprilia recommend. Another £160 then.

With my barrels away at Ducati Aprilia Kaemna in Germany, I am carrying out some head porting myself. More burning of the midnight oil required.

Here we are refitting my modified Flywheel.
