    A week later it fully locked up after starting it on the track and had to give it a full rebuild.
    I forgot to maintenance it , On the way back it went in the carwash and i just forgot about the rest.

    By now it has been fully rebuilded with new crank and everything , is up to 100hrs already :-({|=
