well there you go,,,,,whoever did it,,,,,wasnt too careful with the rtv,,,,,,there is a lot of little surfaces that have to be covered

again,,no biggie

maybe raise a little hell with the mechanic,,,,,,maybe you'll get a better deal next time

Take it back to whom ever installed your cam and show them the oil leak......then get them to fix it (oil leak)
it's like Bing discribed in his post above the oil is traveling in the bolt hole and coming out where the bolt head meets the rocker box...

Well after getting the jetting right (and i'm not quite sure i'm spot-on)..........I like the power progression from idle to full throttle this cam offers.....The stock cam came off hard from idle (power) and flatten out on the top end IMO...... I'm still doing some tweeking on er....Intake boots and other minor things....I think for the riding i do with this Rappy the stage 1 HC will work just fine......

Trails for now, when its time for the straight line machine, I'm going back to the drawing board......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
