Hello everyone. just a quick hi

I purchased a S4 from a member here who had some engine issues.

The bike is totally in bits and a '05 999s engine with 999R cases will be going in.

When I say in bits, the new engine is in the frame with mesurements ready to be taken for the fitment of the S4 swing arm. Bosses and bearings will need to be added to the cases.

I am pretty handy, so hopefully can sort the ineviatable issues that I will face.

Look forward to picking your brains soon.

Andy
