doing a frame swap
turns out my project bike's frame was bent, suuuucks. so i got a frame on ebay, and i'm in the process of swapping everything over. i'm having issues getting the engine to separate from the frame. i have the front motor mount that mounts to the underside of the neck taken off. i have the two long pins on the rear taken out, one above the swing arm, and the other below the swing arm mount.
are there any other motor mounts that i'm missing? my friend suggested its probably just wedged in there real good, but before i go and beat the piss out of it with a rubber mallet any more, i wanted to check and see if someone can point out something i'm missing.

take the 2 long bolts back into the frame / engine and screw them in right direction !
there are 2 dsitance parts mounted into the engine - !!!!!
if you loose them ----- engine comes down !!

heh, yeah, someone on another forum pointed that out. i would have been beating myself with the rubber mallet after a few days of trying to figure that one out on my own. alright, so now i have the engine out, and ready to mount up to the new frame, do i put the pins back in and rotate them counter clockwise to pull those inner spacers?
thanks dude

alright, i got the engine in. i turned the pins counter clockwise to tighten the inner bolts up to the frame. i'm putting everything back together, and i have a couple harness plugs that i apparently dont have anything to plug them into. anyone have any clue?

nevermind, found it it was hanging down behind part of the frame where i couldnt see it. didnt notice it til i stuck my head under the subframe to investigate thinking i pinched a harness between the engine and the frame.

You might want to glance at a manual. There are some things that will save you a lot of headache.

make sure you get the right plug for the map sensor .
It will kill it if you use the wrong plug.
Map sensor on kick stand side near throttle bodies, bolted to frame with vac hose,
