New spares + cementing

A small progress on the bike plus some new spares - the front master cylinder assy and a bunch of other OEM parts, gaskets, seals, washers, bolts, etc. mostly for the engine assembly. The set of new SKF bearings for the crankshaft and gearbox. The welded tank is completed and checked on the bike and it fits good. The pictures show the application of the Loctite two part metallic cement over the smoothened seams for the much needed surface correction; now drying.

Floating chamber cover

There is a plethora of ways how to spend free five days out of work. Depending on the preferences, you can travel, relax, go party or ski (actually, the today weather in Czechia still appeals for some bike riding). Or, like myself, you can lock up in the garage and spend time in a quiet contemplation, working on a single part which will be hardly visible in the end :)
