DAMN Riders - No rules, Just ride!

Update; Ground some weld out of the pipe, you can see the right side vs the left

Actually cleaned it up a little more after doing the other side. Then sent it out for ceramic coating. Might help performance a little, looks good & easy to clean.

Decided on a new oem Honda camshaft. There are mixed & poor reviews on the Hotcams one. The Web cam is the sh*t for these bikes but that sucker is about $550 with the required hardfaced rockers. Naw, nope, not now.

Previous valve job was crappy, the valves margins were too thin (edge thickness). I ordered new Kibblewhite valves. Guides were ok. Will be doing a little port work, new valves, seals & chain.

The cylinder is at the machinist getting bored.

I'm debating the famous 2nd & 5th gear swap. This closes the large gap between 1st & 2nd for the woods & puts 5th back up to where it was before going down to the 14 tooth counter sprocket. Have to split the cases & it's about $175 in parts. Guys that have done this say it was the best mod ever... IDK... It's still going to be a BRP
