Two-strokes... Twice the power strokes, half the time between rebuilds.
Looks like you're doing a good job

The rest of the bike is cleaned up and ready to go, hope to have the motor back in over Easter and get it run in ready for springtime

Same with mine, so I tend to put the barrels on but keep the heads off till it’s in the frame.
And I don’t have any water pipes, so mine should be easier.
