This is the start of the engine rebuild. TZR reeds (6 petal vs the standard 4). There's not much metal there so I have to be careful not to go through the sides. The crank needs a full rebuild and I'll be replacing the bearings and seals in the gearbox.
Pic shows the standard (on right) vs the grind for the TZR (on left). The port window hasn't been done yet as the final timing and window width haven't been decided. A few more calculations and measurements to make yet.
It still needs tiding up but this was one of the first steps before spending any 'real' money.
