Hi All,
I am getting my motor back together. It is on the bench. I have timing disk on primary side of crank, and am checking valve timing with a dial gauge on magnetic stand. The head is torqued down and valve clearances are set.
I cannot remember what cam is in my bike and I am getting some funny readings. Any advice on these readings is appreciated. I am considering getting another cam even though bike was running ok before. I am also considering advancing about 10 degrees by moving pinion.
I dont really want to take the motor to bits again.
The measurements were taken 3 times and are not perfect but as good as I can get them. I am sure about the lift but am probably off a few degrees on disk.
Left Hand:
Inlet opens: 72
Inlet closes: 95
Lift: 429
Ex opens: 72
Ex closes: 63
Lift: 453
Right Hand:
Inlet opens: 76
Inlet closes: 92
Lift: 425
Ex opens: 76
Ex closes: 62
Lift: 415
Any advice is appreciated. I noted the combat cam opens at about 59 degrees,
Thanks,
jerry
