Normal
I am ready now for another ride, as soon as I clean my filter that is.I will need to order parts for the broken bike.Brian, the cam rides in a bearing on one end and the other end is an oil bath in an aluminum carrier. The valves do work, but the cam has to rotate freely to push the cams open. So when it dried out and seized it locked up momentarily. The carrier is damaged and when I tried to re-assemble the cam in the carrier and turn it, it was so tight it wouldnt move by hand. It should spin spin in the carrier. Working on cause of loss of oil flow or whatever it was that caused it.
