This method is all about the love of detail and the care you put into each part of your motorbike. You don't need to be familiar with the engine or have a manual on hand. The focus is on the process of careful cleaning, attention to detail, and the ability to reverse the process easily.
1. Start by preparing a large, clean floor area (about 5 by 5 meters or larger) covered with white paper. This will be your canvas.
2. Carefully remove the engine from the motorbike. You don't need prior engine knowledge; just proceed step by step, removing parts firmly but gently.
3. Use the right tools. Do not cut corners and use poor quality or badly fitting tools, lest you break a bolt or shred a thread. removing things is harder than you think, try to do it well.
4. As you remove each part, clean it thoroughly and place it on the white paper. Draw an outline around it to show its exact position. The idea is to create a visual map of the engine as you disassemble it, so you can easily see how everything fits together.
5. Continue this process for every part, focusing on the care and the joy of getting each piece spotless. This will take a long time. There’s no rush, and the process itself is part of the experience.
5. Once you’ve identified any worn parts and replaced them, you can use your drawn map to reverse the process and reassemble the engine. The emphasis is on the reversibility of the method—because everything is mapped out, reassembly is straightforward and stress-free.
