Taking engine out burning oil
neilg:
It is possible to have the guides fitted with inserts instead of new guides but still needs the head off. SEP and The Cylinder Head Shop both do this. The diameter reamed should be 6.6mm I think. From experience car guys generally don't have the right gear. My local engineering shop will not touch valve guides on Japanese bike heads as they just don't have the right equipment and refuse to do a second rate job for some one.

Started taking engine out today after I had been out for a ride . Bike dropped on to 3 cylinders . When I got home took plug out of number one which was cold . Was caked in oil cleaned it up fired on all four again . I've got pipes off and carbs and I've had my fingers on valve guides and I'm sure I can turn them . ?? Will find out tomz my mate who was following me was also covered in oil lol
