....be aware that a solid mounted catch tank / welded tube on tank body ....will see alot of small harmonic vibrations that can lead to cracks and well....eventually failure .

I'm with MeanBean49 on this one....#2 piston shows intake valve marks....does not take much to slightly bend a valve so it no longer seats propperly.

clearance issue ...... try a slabside brake pedal . if the slines are smaller you could cut off the kat spline shaft and weld in a slabby shaft ... then bush the frame mount for the smaller shaft . come to think of it.... the early teapots had similar brake pedals to the slabby ... you could check those too as an option .

.... never paid any mind to articles and stats .... just real world tests that applied to my bike and how it perfomed against others at the time I rode them ....like a twat . I enjoyed my efe’s and all the times I had to push start them when the starter clutch bolts sheared.... or cleaning out the shattered clutch basket bits from the motor after it exploded from a 5 gear burnout....or the indestructable roller bearing crank that on occaision ...somehow seemed to shag a bearing after a top gear wot run ..... all little issues that are never put in articles . As far as oil cooled motors go ....again .... based on how they performed to the way I rode them at the time.... deffinately out performed the mighty efe in abuse , endurance and power .... but they too had their little issues .... but all I can think of is the 2nd gear failures ..... broken timing chains .... or spitting a rod through the cases ... but only after it’s been sitting on the rev limiter gor 5 minutes .

...... aaaaand.... wonderful transmission

owned 5 efe’s during my life and 3 of them suffered spun crank bearings.....stator side on 2 of them and the other was in the middle ....which requires crank disassembly then balancing..... unlike just swapping out some shells like the oil boiler . the clutch basket develops a rattle over time and the big center nut needs to be upgraded....

those cases are repairable easy enough .....you still have the hole centers as a guide to counter bore out the damage ....weld in new spools....tap new threads ....done .
