To install the motor the swingarm has to be connected.
So today we start with all the major parts ready to go.

Grease the engine mount tube.
Use anti-seize grease.

Grease the pivot pin and place it just inside the chassis tube.

With the dividing washers in place install the engine mount into the chassis.
I found it easier to install the engine mount into the swingarm away from the frame and then slide it into place. The "O" rings are hard to compress while installing the dividing washers.

Position the lock washers and install the end cap bolts.
I have installed the cap bolt with the grease nipple on the wrong side because it was easy to take photos of it that way. The grease nipple needs to be on the other side or the rear brake rod will clash with it.
I have secured the lock washers with S/S safety wire.
Connect a grease gun and fill the cavity inside the pivot pin until it runs out the opposite cap bolt threaded area.

Install the shoocks.
Loctite the shock mount bolts or use a new spring washer. I did both.

Next I have to fit the engine so place the chassis on a piece of carpet on the floor.
Wrap some Ableflex around the chassis rails where the paint may get damaged if the engine drops.
I placed a section of 10mm thick nylon onto of the bottom rails just in case, ply would have worked as well.
I taped the engine mounts so I did not take any paint off as the engine was slid into place.
Have another person help guide the engine into the mounts and install the bolts while you hold the engine.

So the rear guard can to fitted the seat has to be in place.
The new plastic seat pan needs to have connection plates installed.

This is what the original front seat pan connection looks like.
