Latest news - 6 valves and 4 rockers replaced (lucky I had a pair of 916 heads lying around!) , SP cams in and shimmed, heads now looking as good as new and Samco hoses on order. Barry and Steve at Motorapido doing a fine job so hopefully next week it will start going together, the snow will melt and I can ride....

Some of the hoses were showing their age so a set of nice new Samco hoses will be going on when its rebuilt. Credit crunch???
