Head bolts/nuts

[Bjorn]

Hi guys,

 

Got a quick question regarding the head studs/nuts. If i pull the heads do I need to replace the studs?

 

Thanks!

No...why are you going to remove the heads ?

Turns out we are not. The bike showed signs of sputtering/misfires. Plugs didn't look to good. I had a bad feeling about this regarding my question for pulling the heads.

 

Turns out my brother forgot to change the plugs on time and these where in for >16.000km.

 

Did a compression test @ cold WOT throttle:

 

LHS: 10bar

RHS: 10,5bar.

 

changed the plugs and she's back on the road again

Gotta love it when BIG TROUBLE turns out to be something simple!
