Engine rebuild

Post by paul.sheppard »

My Leader is in need of a total engine rebuild, does anyone have any recommendations who to go to for this? I am in South East London/North West Kent area but can trailer the bike a reasonable distance if the right workshop is suggested.

closest place is your garage ...

Seriously, these things are not rocket science and armed with the workshop manual, tools and determination ...

Thanks John, if this was a four stroke or a steam engine I would have done it months ago!! My knowledge of 2 strokes is measured in negative numbers and I dont want to get stuck with a "rebuilt" engine that I cannot get to run as no professional would want to take it on at that stage. I just feel it would be better to let an expert do the whole job!!
