Many years later events outside my control ..aka the soon to be X wife ... required I sale the bike. Sold it to a buddy. Now with over 20,000 miles it has started to leak a little oil from around the head gasket. A re-torque didn't help. Ran well but if it sat for awhile it would huff blue out the right pipe. But if ridden often no huff'n.
So since our ride'n season is toast.... ..... pull'd the engine. I was very surprised as to the condition of the cam chain guild.. Excellent ! I still told him to get a new one.. this one looks great but is original and who knows how much time before it goes south.
He ask'd about replace'n the points.. but I told him he doesn't ride it enough to warrant the cost. Once the parts hit his door step.... gaskets, seals, 2nd over pistons....misc related bits... we'll continue with the project.
