Cam timing question 08 Feb 2006 15:25 #22539

RonKZ650 Offline User Posts: 3700 Thank you received: 238	I'd say you have it correct. It's been a long time since I removed my cams. As I've said in other posts, there's no reason in the world to ever have to fool with the cam timing if you only do one cam at a time and place it in the center of the engine keeping the chain tight running down into the engine. 321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

IT RUNS!!!!!

The friggin starter seems to have crapped out on me. The solenoid is clicking and popping and vibrating but the starter itself won’t turn. That’s upsetting because it worked about a month ago when I last had the battery in.

But that doesn’t matter, cause right now it is a smoky popping sparking rough but RUNNING motor!!

I am going to have a drink; or 12 to commemorate this occasion!

1977 kz650 c1

bought it because I was told it would never run again...I like to prove people wrong.
