Post subject:  Re: First ride!

well....I couldnt wait to find out so i took the motor off since my last post and defintly not the flywheel has a bunch of end play now....Main bearing? I had to have the one main bearing thrust cut..maybe the guy doin the cutting of the bearing? the first one i put in did seize up on me....then had to have him do another idk ill tear into it more tomorrow but you guys are defintly right about the bearing.
