Hey Guys,
hope your all well and getting out on the bikes?
Been pointed out to me that if your fitting an endless camchain, you need to grind back either the pivot rivet on one side or the brace/roller.
did do a search, but the link to the external website on this is missing
really want an endless chain as I dont want the engine to depend on my ability to do a soft link (i'm the same with drive chains, but try getting an endless one these days!
Got a MIG, so i can tack weld where i grind off
I rebuilt an XS enginein the 90's and i dont ever remember having to split the chain or play around with the tensioner?
The bolts holding the tensioner are AWOL (like every other bloody nut and bolt!) is there anything special about these? such as low profile heads for clearence?
Thanks Guys
Barrie
