i had mentioned to doug wilford a couple of months back that i would like him to show me a few of his tricks on rebuilding sachs motors. at a recent pog meeting he asked me if i was still interested to which i emphatically replied YES. about a week ago i took a sachs bottom end over there to rebuild with doug. he graciously walked me through the rebuild process so now i have a much better understanding of the inner working of those sachs motors. i was already pretty good at rebuilding the ktm motors (and can-ams and some japs too) but now i feel confident to tackle the smaller penton engines along with the bigger ones. doug is an absolute wizard on these engines so it was good to have him as a resource to walk me through it. just so that everyone knows, doug is still willing to rebuild your sachs engines/bottom ends, just not the top ends. thanks doug for all the help.

Hello, I think one on the challenges of rebuilding the Sachs bottom ends is the variety of transmission adjustment methods. Through the years, the method of adjustment has been changed hopefully for an improvement. Joe
I'm jealous. I would love to watch Doug go through one. What a learning experience that must have been.

We need to have a video done of the correct way to do a Sachs rebuild that could be posted on youtube.
And after that, the correct way to do a KTM engine. For those of you who have this knowledge, it is very important for the survival of the species that the knowledge is past on. Not to just one, but to as many as possible!!! In this way you and your knowledge will live on!

You tube would be ok, but a DVD would be better. We people with dial up can't watch you tube because of download speed limitations. Besides a DVD would keep it accessable for use at any time. Just my opinion. I'd buy a copy or two.
Add a copy to me as well.

Yes pleeze
I would take a copy of both the KTM and the Sachs rebuilds
include me I would like a copy
