Depends on how well you clean it, what all you replace and clearance, and what tools you have. It can be done well in a weekend.

Really!!! wow. i had no idea!!! when i first was thinking about getting a 7 i was reluctant because "rotories are so unreliable" but as the more i learned about them the more i began to love them. anyways i was scared about doing a rebuild myself because i didn't want to screw the motor up. .... anyways thanks alot for the info. i appreciate it. and by the way, nice job.
