I use a ratchet strap around the frame to lift the motor and therefore balance them and fiddle around.
Patience, patience.

Better get the riggers spike and hammer out Mickey.....surely its not the OSSA??
(Bultaco would never have done this sort of shoddy design.....just something else just as painful!)

ha,actually Macca was using riggers podge bar,(pig sticker),all good slept onit  ::),swapped the short explorer s/arm out for a longer pioneer one,hence the necessary brake cable swap,was too nervous in the paddock sections,(great in the narly stuff),so this weekend at bula vinduro was the big test,longer wheel base was a winner,so was the whole weekend,heaven vinduro's just get better,even did a lap on the dirt track ossa,bloody h/bars were a tad too wide in the cow tunnel section,but had to try,(memo to self) gotta build a super pioneer, :P
