Hey fella's...Seeing as I couldn't go to Edenhope and it's too wet down here to work today I put the new cam in my bike...Did everything as per instructions,fired it up and it ran fantastic...Just got back from a short ride and the difference is really noticable...If by chance I have done something wrong,would it have shown it's self by now or if there was something a miss would it run so sweet????There is also a distinct whirring sound now which I assume is the cam wearing in???
Cheers...Sparra
Thanks for the reply...I installed an Andrews EV27 and a new bearing,as I didn't have a measuring tool I installed an .055 shim as per nightrider instructions...I do have a .050 and .060 shim that I could change over too if need be..
Thanks again for the reply...The cam came complete and the bike only has 8000ks on it...On the weekend If I get time I will take it out and swap the gear over...As far as end play goes I will see if I can find someone to measure it for me and go from there...
OK....I have managed to get the original gear off the shaft so before I take the new gear off the new shaft I will mark it for alignment...I was suprised to find that there is no keyway or such to stop the gear spinning on the shaft...When I put the original gear on the new camshaft if I put the shaft in the freezer for a while do you think that will shrink it enough for fitting the gear..This is all new to me and it would be an easy fix to just pay someone to do it but by doing it myself I am getting to know my way around my bike and for me thats what it's all about....Thanks for the help...
