Can I trick you into picking it up for me?
Bummer, the first one is the worst. Glad your OK and the damage is not worse.
Little to no chance that there is no damage, remove the exhaust and carbs and take a look at the valves to find out .
The cams should be at a 10 and 2 position roughly on the hole that is at TDC. The lock on the tensioner tends to crack where the rod goes through...
Bite it off and dig into it, you only need to learn one engine, best to learn it now.
84 VF750F 86 VFR750 86 VFR750.....Never had to walk after 23 years of abuse.Rode home after every crash, even after being looped.
Brute force Drewl has over stated the difficulty of this repair. Checked the factory manual and beer and a hammer are the only tools required...
Your in good hands. Both are correct and Tink's advise to be sure it is correct is the best.
Good to hear. I would be suprised if your repair was not the best thing you could have done. Jet kits do not do these bikes any favors.Let us know...
The screw's are in the valley dead center of the carbs. Two in the rear and one in the front. The adapters screw into the head (memory may serve...
That is wildy low. What temps does your engine run at?
Not to thow a wrench in this , but how did you get the rear cams in without resetting the tensioner? You may want to inspect it to be sure it is...
A very fine write up! You must give it a time rating in beers.....I give it a 2-3 beer time table.
It does look alot like a product found in the tampon section of my local store....the wings brought it to mind.
I would replace it. It would drive me nuts......nuttier
That sucks, would have rather been wrong on this one. You will need to remove the head and inspect the damage.
Bweiss should be on the maybe list.
As described ,the failure would make me want to check compression first. If its ok then at least you know it is an easy fix and not to expensive...
That is way to hot. Replace the thermostat and check. I have been in bumper to bumper trafic in 100+temps for an hour and came close to 240 degrees.
