Timing
Ok so I believe I have a cct issue, have the bike down to removed valve covers.
1. is there anyway to check timing with valve covers off and markings on each cam sprocket? I have no clue where to go from here 2. Is there anyway to gauge damage to internals without taking the heads off? - I am looking to plug and play with new or rebuilt heads 3. If it comes to the point where I need to to remove each head to check internals, The bolt on the outside of the head and I see another on the inside, what others need to be removed to remove the head? 4. What am I looking for internally to say still good or no good? Thanks |
Check timing by following the CCT replacement procedure for finding TDC and the alignment for the cams for each pot in the Knowledgeable Base. You'll need to access & remove the alternator timing cover bolts.
And measure valve clearances and if any are way off then that's the sign of valve damage. |

Well I am trying to add a picture but havent ever done so, but on closer inspection of the cam chain one side is aligned and the other is riding above the grooves a bit. after reading cct replacement how do I get the chain back into the grooves? |
where exactly can I find this timing hole?

No. 9 is the cap through which you see the timing marks on the flywheel and remove no. 10 to turn the crank round. If you haven't already done so remove the spark-plugs to make turning it over easier. |
