VERY nice, well done you. Glad you can get out in the wind and enjoy the fruits of your labor...Just about finished up putting her back together. Have to finish up a few little things in the morning. Check fluid levels and tire pressure and then I should be able to take a ride. She finally saw some daylight for the first time in who knows how many months.

I got the same side fairings on my bike right nowJust about finished up putting her back together. Have to finish up a few little things in the morning.

Yes, walking away is wise....seems there is always something trying to spoil our fun.My experience has taught me its best to walk away and come back at it with a clear head. Looks like not a terrible fix but I’ll have to pull the valve cover. Seems the common thing is the intake cam is off a tooth. Ah well.
You must have done some good weight loss mods on it...I did find out it weighs 509 fully fueled.
bike needs a tune doesn't it? good excuse? or maybe ure having fun with it.I did find out it weighs 509 fully fueled.
Damn man, I was excited to come here and see how your ride went. Well I really hope it’s just something simple. On the bright, you caught it with enough time to address it and be out to enjoy riding season. Keep us posted!Well, took it down the street and back to the house a couple times just to make sure some things were tight. Then took it up the street and she is throwing codes!! Like it’s cool. C24, and C27. Can’t accelerate over 5000 rpm. Those are #1 ignition and #4 ignition. From reading it’s either the cam chain jumped a tooth or the cam chain tensioner isn’t right. Fml.
I’m done for the day. Once I get frustrated I’m no good and will only break something. So another day. Clear head and we’ll get it going right.
Those 2 codes relate to " Ignition System Malfunction".Well, took it down the street and back to the house a couple times just to make sure some things were tight.

Done quite a few. Aluminum subframe, R1 wheels, taken a lot of things off. Can’t wait to weigh it with less fuel in it.You must have done some good weight loss mods on it...
It’s frustrating but I am learning more than I ever thought I would. I love doing my own things. I plan on getting it to Frank for the tune once it’s ready. I’m trying to decide if I want to do the NoS now or next year.bike needs a tune doesn't it? good excuse? or maybe ure having fun with it.
u could throw it on there.... have 2 maps made.... personally I wouldn't push my luck tooo afr, didn't u lose a head gasket already last season?It’s frustrating but I am learning more than I ever thought I would.

Maybe compression test before you mess with cam timing and another test after correcting cam timing just to make sure you fixed it?That’s the goal is to have him do the two maps. Yes blew the head gasket before doing studs. Lesson learned. Lol
There will be no denying it is fixed. Can't go over 5k rpm now.Maybe compression test before you mess with cam timing and another test after correcting cam timing just to make sure you fixed it?
10-4 on that! Just be an easy way to make sure you have it close to right before putting it back together. Thanks for the subframe by the way!There will be no denying it is fixed. Can't go over 5k rpm now.
