That does not seem normal.
I did the valves on a '10 250r two weeks ago and when properly timed with #2 at TDC, the intake cam had the lobes off the buckets on both cylinders and slipped right in. The exhaust cam had the lobes off the buckets on #2 but on #1 it had to be tightened down.
If #1 is at TDC, I am not sure which lobs will be on the buckets on #2.
Make sure #2 is at TDC and install the cams per the manual using the tightening sequence shown and see what happens.
Be sure to check the sprockets on the end of the cams, on my 250r the intake cam had a paint mark over "IN" and a paint mark over "EXH" on the exhaust cam. Be sure you are installing the cams over the correct valves. Also remember #1 is on the left side of the bike as you ride.
