SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL
• This section covers service of the rocker arm, camshaft, cylinder head and valve.
• The cylinder head services can be done with the engine installed in the frame.
• Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces when removing the cylinder head cover and cylinder head. Do not strike
the cylinder head cover and cylinder head too hard during removal.
• When disassembling, mark and store the disassembled parts to ensure that they are reinstalled in their original loca-
tions.
• Clean all disassembled parts with cleaning solvent and dry them by blowing them off with compressed air before
inspection.
• Camshaft and rocker arm lubricating oil is fed through oil passages in the cylinder head and camshaft holder. Clean the
oil passages before assembling the cylinder head and cover.
