CB750 F2 camshaft
archmill:
Can I ask, what is the problem with using a soft link in a new chain ? considering the final drive chain is fitted with a soft link.

If your final drive chain link comes off, yes, it can be dangerous to people behind you and your own legs. If a soft link cam chain link gives way, it totally wrecks the inside of the engine and most of the components in it. The engine could also seize immediately and could cause a huge problem to the riders life expectancy. People do use soft link but only if they are not stripping the bottom end of the engine.
archmill:
That'll be no soft links then LOL.
Still asking the question re the camshaft. Will any camshaft fit (I realise cam lift and timing are different on different cams). When you are up Sh*t creek without a paddle, even a lollypop stick will get you going
Trigger:
It is a tricky one to answer as, I have no real dealings with F2 heads or any of the running gear. All other CB750 sohc's fit K0 to F1 ;)
Bryanj:
F2 was nearest cam tobthe original which was de-tuned a bit over the years but any cam will run, not sure about towers and rocket arms as F2 valves were bigger and angle changed i believe. You could check all the part numbers to be certain.
