Not an ideal solution but if you want to consider doing that I can make space in mine.

I know I'm not exactly on your doorstep but the offer is there.

Shit that looks bad Kwacky, gutted for you! If I were you I would be thinking of waiting till off season and trying to pick up a cheap engine and making it a track bike. Sorry I can't offer anything more helpful or constructive!

(sadface)

What's wrong with it? Did valve meet piston but you didn't get away as lightly as my Fiesta did?

It looks like a valve talk a walk and the rest is history. Mike says it's a broken valve head that's done the damage.

Sorry to hear/ see this Kwacky, I realise you have really spent a lot of time and money on her recently. Only you can decide what the next step will be mate

If I can't find an engine then it looks like the decision will be made for me.

If you ask politely, Monty might crash his bike for an insurance job then you can buy his engine off him?? ;)
