i fear i maybee too late, during some highway fun tonight she let go of something. I'm Stripping it down to find the culprit.

i pulled both CCTs, and the spark plugs and checked compression.

btw does anyone know what stock compression PSI should be?

EngineNoO9 is an unknown quantity at this point
im sure he has. those pics were taken right after he stripped it. I'm not fully convinced that it's missing compression... the cct's were fine. maybe just a bent valve but I just don't see it being bad in both cylinders

the cam timing was off, and all my valves survived.
this has got to be a first.

dude. seriously you made the same post in my thread basically. changing springs isn't the end all of cct fixes. he's going ape's. just turns out that he got real lucky cause it skipped the day he ordered them, I got brand new oem updated ones. you do your spring thing. i don't think you have to tell everyone about it...

put in the ccts. adjusted the timing. etc etc. went to put the motor back in and im having trouble with the engine mount adjustment thingers. you need a special tool, i forget what its called, but its in the manual im gunna go pick it up today.

this bike is a bitch to put the motor in because the motor holds the frame together
