Camshaft lubrication

<< < (2/2)

Seabeowner:
Not sure what the issue is. The residual oil level should be even across the top of the head. (unless your bike is on the side stand) There is a wall between 1-2 and 3-4. The drain holes to the cam chain tunnel 2/3 are at and above the level of the aforementioned  walls. The camshaft bearing surfaces are above this level and really have to wait until the pressure comes up.
Or do you have a early head as these were different?
