Top end time
27 Apr 2020 08:45
The $650 83 KZ1100 3 years of free riding are over.
Time to spend money and pull it apart.
Number 1. Others are dry, but probably not far behind.

Cam caps are not easy. Impact hammer freed them. Strange some exhaust were loose. All the rest needed the hammer.
APE make cam cap bolts? Don't think I want to reuse those

I believe I got all the bolts out undamaged. Wasn't easy though.
I just reshimmed it to spec before I started tearing it down.
Don't want to reuse the bolts though.

Head bolts darn near broke my impact hammer, but got them all loose and undamaged. Unlike the top of this impact hammer

Next time simply soak the fasteners with Kroil for 3 days. No kidding - you will be surprised at the difference in removing them. Ed

For a second I thought it was cracked but it's just carbon build up.

Light start on cylinder head surface. A lot came off with a toothbrush and solvent. Light touch with a scotchbrite pad. I'll get the valves better when I remove them for the new valve seals.
