    Transalp Engine

    Hi all, begining of this year I decided I was bored after completing all the wife's little jobs, so purchased a Transalp XL600VP, which is now in a million bits all over the garage.

    Does anyone have any thoughts on powed coating the engine, I've been told it will be fine, but I'm not sure

    Hello and welcome to the forum.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    No problem with P/coating the engine alot of the streetfighter boys do it.

    Not cheap as they take a lot of time blanking off all the oilways.

    Be nice to see it if you do it tho..

    Welcome to the site too.
