Guess the problem I had get $10.00

You left your He-Man action figure in one of the cylinders?

Chain is jammed in front side of the crank below the guide. Crank must be able to spin freely while pulling the chain tight and installing the exhaust cam, but held in correct position with hand-tension pulling on the chain at the back...that was the hold-up with mine.
Good luck!

You forgot your engine is the Australian model and the engine rotates backwards?

No.......The cam chain tensioner is ape manual and is off bike.

How can you turn the engine over without the cam chain tensioner installed?

No have mod installed.

You left string in the cylinders to hold the valves up? That's actually a serious guess.....I think?

If you try to turn over the engine without a cam chain tensioner taking up the slack, the chain will bunch up around the crank and bind it, or the cams will jump time and you risk bending valves.
