Ongoing FZS 600 project

[basher]

Okay quick update for the time being, made a bad mistake pertaining to the camshafts. long story short they're pitted to hell. I believe i left debris on the cams during the cam chain replacement and valve clearance work. when i ran the bike first time I came home to notice a valve cover bolt was completely missing and in said hole the cam journal was actually moving. straight away pulled the cover off and sure enough lots of metal sludge and gouging of the journals. bit of a set back but besides that all was well. when I dropped the oil from the engine I was thankful to only find small bits of very fine metal particulate which im assuming also came from the cams. so the plan ahead is


I've ordered a completely clean used cylinder head off ebay.
i'm buying some hex key sockets to remove the current head.
also have to buy a new head gasket.
clean down the new head when it comes and respray it black to match the rest of the engine
flush the oil galleries with diesel and the whole bottom end for good measure, I cannot risk any more metal finding its way around the engine
once that's done ill just reinstall the top end and time it up while ensuring the cams and everything is pristine clean.
and finally redo the valve clearances to ensure they're all in spec again 


little bit of a set back but I know what I did wrong and ill update when I have the engine running again after all the above is done
