    Helo guys i did order another repair manual but its coming from the uk so its gunna be awhile. At least two weeks. So i already have the parts and i wana ride. So i got the yamabond sealant crap, and the primary chain guide. I want to install it. It would seem that i must first remove the crankshft but what iam not sure off is the caM CHAIN. Does the cam chain have a master link on it or ist it like the primary and all one solid piece.


    Post script, does anybody kno wthe torque specs for all the bolts. :p :p

    you can un-bolt the cam sprockets, you don't need to break the chain.

    Yes, you have to split the cases.
