Mechanic Web Watcher, you do the work, I advise.
Just one thing I gotta figure out... how to reach across the web and percussively adjust your perspective.
You helped an insane amount
but lets not count our chickens before they hatch, we're not 100% sure it will stay up when I rev... once we check that we can dance and celebrate...
I'll track down the trojan distributer and you'll owe me a visit the next time something happens
Like I said though in aim, all the other things we did made it run a lot better when it started up, actually sounded like a good bike... I bet those valves helped a lot
EDIT: So I did the JBWELD, and it looks good... I used JB Stick weld and I would not recommend the liquid one, as you have a little less control over where it stays... ;
IMPORTANT: THIS IS A TEMPORARY FIX MEANT TO GET YOU UP AND GOING, I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL HOLD PROPERLY OR NOT, IF IT GETS IN YOUR HEAD BECAUSE YOU DID IT WRONG YOU'RE F***ED.
Let EACH layer dry for 1 hr minimum! You have 5 min to use the JBweld before it hardens, so work fast!
Inside I did 3 layers...
first layer you roll it up into a snake thing and go across the inside crack... squeeze it an as deep as possible and clean up and leftovers (ha ha... get your mind out of the gutter)
second layer you roll it up into a snake thing a little thicker this time, and do the same thing but follow across the corner (thats where it cracks.) make it nice and even and clean up extra
thrid layer you cover the main layer and somewhat smooth it out so its not high in one spot and not in other... you might not want to, and dont need to, I did because I dont want to take a chance, if its even it also looks better (but who sees it)
Outside I did 2 layers;
first layer is meant for you to even it out a bit and to fill in the tiny cracks in the metal, best and easiest way to do this is again roll it up real small and go against the crack... so run your finger from the lower part to the higher part... this way it'll fill in everything... I can show in a picture what I mean...
Second layer, just like on the other side, it's meant to cover the 1st layer to make sure any moisture or anything else doesnt get in or out... with the outside I added some more jb since theres a bigh height difference... if you add more its easier to make it look better...
what I'll do is sand it down a little and put some clear coat or something over it so moisture doesn't get at it and so oil doesnt somehow eat away at the jb inside.
Once i sand it down, I'll take a pic and show you guys how it came out
