The lock nut on my left exhaust valve adjuster has come off, gone under the cam and cracked the head below the cam... Bugger @#$%
I have been doing this for years and my old Ducati has the same sort of adjuster and never had a problem with either before over decades of ownership.
I have a couple of questions.
1 - can you remove the head without removing the engine from the frame?
2 - can you remove the cam without breaking the chain?
3 - I have a spare 1975 head (#447 104 514), will this fit on a 1972 engine (#s650 129 120)?
This is to show where the crack is using the spare head.
