The bike sounded ok, but after a couple of minute of running the engine shut off and the kick start was really hard to push down. Turns out the lower connecting rod bearing was starting to lock up. Oh well... So I'll post updates as I go. I still need a few more items to put the engine back together. It should be a fun winter project anyway.
I've never ridden a 200cc GG. Should be a fun bike...especially at Walker.
