Cb250k3 first restoration project
Fenderfreak:
My intention is to get the cam and rockers re chromed and profiled as well as replace all bearings, rebore etc. Using this first restoration as a steep learning curve so hopefully my next one will be easier and hopefully cheaper 😉
But will probably be just as hard and expensive. 😀

I think they Stellite weld and grind back to shape John..no plating involved. Probably cheaper to get a nice used set from the States or even DK if you are lucky...decent used are around ..just take some trawling on the internet. I put 25k miles on my K3 (plus the 10k it had on it when I got it) and the cam & rockers were near perfect but I changed the oil ! Don't forget to look at CL/CB350 .... same cam & followers.

Thanks Ash, I think I will be bothering you a lot in the next few months 😉

No worries at all John .. glad to have another CB250/350K owner on board. If you need any advice/parts just shout.

John, if you don't have any luck obtaining good s/h cam and followers Newman Cams can metal spray and reprofile your originals as they did for the cam and followers of my CB250RS. First class service as well.
