My bike - previous engine work

Here is a little more history on my AF1 I found while going back over some old messages from the previous owner.

3rd July 2022:
"When we got it, the bike had been stored for 10-ish years but I cleaned the carb etc and it ran very well. After putting new tyres on etc and a fresh MOT, on its first ride it spat a load of gearbox oil out. After pressurising the crankcase, I thought it was crank seals so changed those and it made no difference, so I ended up splitting the motor down and saw that the gasket between the crankcase and gearbox had gone, so changed that and checked everything else as I went. One of the best Rotax lumps I've ever played with to be honest"
