Alright time for an update. So I needed to order a starter clutch. I ordered it and haven't gotten it installed yet. The original owner dumped the bike and caused some damage. When draining the oil it was almost like jello coming out of the bottom, absolutely disgusting. I have stripped EVERYTHING from the frame, except for the motor itself. So far when going through the process of removing the engine I found little metal shavings in the pistons... I am pretty sure this is a bad thing. The front of the engine had oil all over it when taking it apart so I have had my concerns. I have two recent pictures from me working on it. The second picture isn't what it looks like now, I am down to the motor itself, the cams, cylinder block and pistons have all been removed.
