    Zip lock bags with numbers on the outside seems to work ok for me.

    Sectioned pill containers are also good for little bits and pieces like jets and valve shims.

    Unfortunately, during the trial assembly, a 1/4 drive 12mm socket went into the bowels of the engine, it was found resting under a piston,
    snuggled up alongside #3 little end, so trial assembly #1 morphed into trial assembly #2,Luckily, both cranks now spin freely,
    now I can split the cases again, apply a smidgeon of Yamabond to the crankcase faces, torque down (again) ,,but, the wind has returned,
    so that's tomorrow's job

    But they go so well with shorts and a singlet.
    Perfect attire for the Litre bike with bald rear tyre.

    Knee high white socks with those and pretend you're German [apologies to any Germans - I'm sure the Dutch probably do it also]

Great timing as I was seriously getting bored being in coffee19 lockdown here in NZ. The thing hasn’t stopped all day! Only a cheap model but seems to be doing something.

    Trialling different combinations of soap and water temperatures to see what works best.

    Carbs are from a MC16 NS250R

    In hindsight, could have gone for the larger model…
