Removing camchain tensioner after valve adj. ? was created by ratson
Can anyone point me to the right procedure .
On GPZ 1100B2 after valve adjustment do I need to remove cam chain tensioner to put valve cover properly??
It should be the same for KZ 1000J engines too.
Tensioned cam chain is some how in the way with top rubber cam chain guide in the middle of the valve cover....on my old Suzuki GS I didn't have to..

Thanks

No i'm talking about cam chain tensioner assembly, do I need to remove it before I put cam cover.

The cam tensioner looks similiar to my 82 kz750's. Last time I adjusted the valves, I just removed the cross-bolt (13116) which allowed the main tensioner bolt to move back when you replace the valve cover.
