    This DYI is not for beginners. Basic knowledge and experience is recommended. This should work for the 1987 450 as well.
    This video has a portion where it shows how to remove the shifter and timing cover.

    IN: 0.08-0.12mm (0.003-0.005in)
    EX: 0.12-0.16mm (0.005-0.006in)

    Awesome video! It’s nice seeing new videos for the 450. I just took the carburetor off mine and hopefully I can get it cleaned up.

      Good luck with the carbs. It takes a lot of patience working on the carbs. I ended up buying a sonic cleaner to clean them out.

    Nice video! Are you going to make a video on adjusting the timing?

    • @MacrossGarage
      @MacrossGarage  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you mean ignition timing, then probably not. You can't adjust timing because spark is controlled by the cdi. You only adjust timing if you take apart the head from the block. Hope that makes sense.

      It’s been awhile but yea that part was difficult. I think moving it out on the right side was the best ways.

      @@MacrossGarage it was a total disaster. Took me 2 hours to get it back on I had to lower the engine. I hope I set the valves correctly because if I didn’t I’m selling the bike. I will not ever take that cover off again in my life. Thanks for the video. Say a prayer for me lol
