Cam shaft and rocker arm wear?

<< < (3/9) > >>

Ah, I was under the impression that they all had to be replaced at the same time, as they get worn together. Anyways, no matter as the rocker arms are worn as well, so will have to fix the whole bunch. There shouldn’t be trouble in reusing the rocker arm shafts, right?

Thank you! I’ll definitely keep you posted on that if the need comes :)

You need to check the rocker shafts, which you'll need to remove to remove the rocker arms anyway.

deberias de medir las levas , creo que los limites estan en el manual .
si no quedara otra opcion se pueden rellenar con soldadura , un tornero sabe hacer ese trabajo , aunque puede que ese trabaja ya se a echo , se ven poros en el metal
revisa los ejes

You should measure the cams, I think the limits are in the manual.
If there is no other option, you can fill them with welding, a lathe operator knows how to do that job, although it is possible that this work has already been done, you can see pores in the metal.
check the shafts

I wrote with an eBay seller who is selling one that is new. He is telling me that the part number is 14101-323-000EH, but he is warning me that the cam shaft is only 27hp. I am not even sure what he means, as I have only been able to find one part number for the cam shaft in an CB550F (for all the CB550 actually), and his part number fits that.

Am I missing something here?
