Yeah I was thinking about cutting the mount off for the brake, but that would leave the clearance just as bad as before. In the short term, I took a torch to the whole thing and managed to...

Don't worry, I do the same. I'm only an hour from Oroville, WA, and I have a good friend who works at the border, so he's kind enough to grab packages for me a lot of the time. There's a pub down...

Leakdown gives me 90% leakage. I could hear it blowing into the crankcase, so went to unscrew the cap to verify, and it blew it into my hand when it got to the last thread. Me thinks it's got some...

Yeah, I have no idea if any of them are valid or not haha. I'll try to check compression either way and see what it says. Check leak down as well, since it makes it easy to pinpoint an issue before...
