"When you’re riding the greatest torque to weight ratio on the planet, you must blast beyond lethargic unassuming cageriders every few minutes to release pent up machine/man stress-inducing anxiety. There exists uncontrolled relish and glee in this exercise."

CB 750 Crank shaft cleanup_MF

As I mentioned the main bearing melting onto my crankshaft was the cause of the seizure so today we polished and scraped away aluminum from the lobe.

There are bits of aluminum in various forms from chunks to channels. We used a blow torch, wire brush, 600 grit wet sand and razor blade to get it off.

What I can't remove I'll have a machinist do.
