So Dave...

Which bike, what year and mileage.

Oh, and for a bonus point, what colour?

CB500/550 / CB500F2 Cam Chain Adjustment

« on: July 23, 2007, 02:43:17 PM »

Hi, newbie here!

It's a few years since I had my CB750 and I'm hoping to collect my 1978 CB550F2 on Sunday.

I had a test ride yesterday and the carbs need balancing and the cam chain is rattling quietly.

I've not got a manual yet so could some kind person remind me how to tension the cam chain.

I've had a quick look and on the back of the block at the bottom there's a locknut and screw and further up there's a bolt.

I seem to remember the engine is set to 15 degrees after TDC but not sure what to do with the bolts.

Many thanks.

Is that THE Biffta with the rather nice 400F I saw at Southport?
