Motor Mounted... Completely!

I put the foot pegs and the rest of the motor into the bike. The piston rings were too big for the cylinder but that was easily fixed with some filing. The copper gasket that goes between the top of the motor and the cylinder had not yet been annealed. Annealing is when you heat up metal to expand the space between the molecules to make it more malleable. This is an important step because it allows the gasket to be squished between the 2 sides of the motor and fill any gaps.
