I reject your reality, and substitute my own!
Progress? Not much. I have been having some difficulty with the top-end. Seeing some Allen bolts in a location that required removal of the cams to reach, I mistakenly assumed (during dis-assembly) that they needed to come out to remove the Rockerbox assembly. So I removed the cams. Now, the intake cam seizes up when the caps are tightened. I purchased a new intake cam and a new Rockerbox. With the new cam, the problem is better, but stil not gone. When the timing marks are aligned, it gets tight, but it's free the rest of the rotation. I'm guessing that means I need to try the new Rockerbox assembly, but it didn't come with any hardware. So I have to get those bolts out from under the cams, and I couldn't budge a few of them..... I guess I'll just have to make it work. Impact driver or something.
Seriously, it's very disheartening. I put a lot of work into getting the head ready, I'd hate to not be able to use it. But if that's the case, I am going straight for a GS500 motor.
Any of you XS/TX guys have any advice?
