Engine is out 🙂, I wish to open it asap but the frame is the priority...

Broken screw, the one to keep the rear shock in place 😪. The others one are removed. I will try to drill it with a "reverse" bit later, it's not a big issue..

After investigations, it seems some Amal have no plate to keep the cable in place. no one has had such issue ?🙄

The missing part (could be done locally) 😏

Carburetor is ready for inspection, the plate to keep the cable in place is missing 😔...

The front wheel is clean outside, I need to remove and inspect the brake and the speedo connection 🙂...

Question: The nut from the flywheel seems not correctly in place ? Thanks for the advices 😏

I received the exhaust and it will fit, the fork tubes are difficult to slide out of the clamps 🥴 . Top end is schedule for this week, it will give me a good overview from the engine status 🙂. I bought this table in Ebay: Powerstands Racing POWERPLATFORM Powerplatform Portable Work Table. A good deal and easy to store when not in use...

No one used a stroboscopique light ? Engine has to run but it is an easy test to do...😏

Other item is the exhaust, my is badly cut 🤮 I found a cheap one in UK, to repair the old one is possible however the final cost will be the same (Welding, sand blasting, painting....). Wait and see...

Today job: Kickstand... The kickstand was broken and the shaft rusted inside. I had to cut it and to do a new pivot. I need to find a spring: Could you give me the size from the original one 😉?

Thank you... 😉

Today I cleaned up the rear wheel, waiting the spoke to replace the 2 broken one. I also got the tires at a fare price (105 USD). Question: the gears are in left side, how are they working : 1N2345 or 54321N ?🤨 Thank you

Hello The bike, the first target is to start the engine with a clean carburetor / exhaust and of course wheels (Tires/ spokes). I will manage to have a Vermont registration : its's means lights, horn with probably a new ignition with 12 volts supply. A long way to go 😪

Hello I just bought a 250 Alpina (1974), no fenders, no electricity, few spokes broken but running engine. Of course, I will need some advices and feedbacks from this forum: First subject will be the seals for the crankshaft. I did in the past few bikes , and riding every day my 175KE (1976), I know my project will need months (probably years). I live near Princeton (NJ USA), Thank you
