Just a couple of points to remember when doing the job.

Don't mix up the bearing caps.

Make sure they go back the same way they came off.


Thanks Frank. Any tips are valuable to me 'cause I'm about to adjust the valves for the first time on my bike!



Keith, When you loosen the bearing caps do it slowly and evenly or you can do damage to the cam.
When you replace the cams you do the same, tighten them up evenly.
If you look in thr Haynes manual they give you the right sequence, also I think with a diagram.
It's a very simple job to do if you take your time. If you do it over your winter you should have plenty of time. Six months at least.
