Progress so far

So here's where I am right now

First and foremost I thought I'd have more time to work on this, but it's all a lie. In the few minutes I could sneak away it's been 100 degree weather. But that's enough crying for one day.



I got the engine ready to dismount but I had a thought. The sprocket from the crankshaft that the cam chain connects to is behind the clutch cover. What if I can remove the camshafts and create enough slack in the cam chain to slip it right under the sprocket (probably have to remove the clutch, we'll see). Then just pull it right out of the top.



I would still have to see exactly how it rides along the guides and check the guides for ware, but this could save me a lot of time and effort. Or add a lot of time and effort when it blows up in my face. I'll find out when the camshafts come out tomorrow.

As always question, comments , suggestions, insults, angry rants, ect, ect.

P.S.
