Update:
Sunday- Rebuilt the carbs. No pics though, you saw them come apart so pics of them going together would be boring...
Monday- I kicked the bikes *** tonight. The original plan was to just remove the head to deal with my spark plug issue, but one thing lead to another...
Removed what I believe are called the crash bars...
Here they are off the bike...
Then removed the exhausts...
Here they are off the bike...
Next I removed the valve cover/cam cover/cylinder head cover (whatever you prefer)...
After loosening the cam chain tensioners, I removed the cam holders/cam journals...
Here are the camshafts almost ready to come out...
And they're out...
Trying to stay organized, these are the valve lifters and shims...
And the kicker of the night, I thought I could just sneak the head head off with the engine still in the frame... I was wrong, had to pull the engine out last minute...
Definately needs a cleaning...
Finally, mission accomplished...
The ever increasing organized mess on my work bench...
Here's my nights work on the floor...
Here's how she sits at the moment...
