Where does the chain go on a camchain?
The chain sits on the guide of the tool, and the changeable tool head (next to the thread) is set up so the breaker pins push on the link pins. It pushes them through very easily. You can just see them being forced into the slots of the tool.
How do you change the camchain on a bike?
The camchain tensioner can stay in place for this operation. Just turn the spring-loaded wheel to release the tension and pull up on the chain. There is a 12mm nut on the opposite side holding an M8 grub screw — undo it and turn the screw clockwise until it locks the tensioner plunger (keep hold of the chain until tightened).
Can a cam chain be taken out of a bike?
For now though they’re holding, so they can stay. With cam cap bolts removed (evenly), the exhaust cam can be taken out. No need to worry about losing the chain into the engine at this point because the inlet is still in place. The cam caps have kindly been marked to make it easier when refitting. It’s as easy as A, B, C… D.

Normally I set timing by the gears, the crank pully, and the timing marks embossed into the casting of the block and head…if they are lined up, the chain really does not make a difference.
Where is the timing mark supposed to line up?
Is the mark supposed to line up with the arrows on the cam sleeves or just to the left of it (with the front cam timed looking through the hole to see red dot, the mark on the sprocket side is just off to the side of the cam sleeve arrows) have the same problem?
