Looks nice, clean!

I modded in a master from a CBR. Had to make a bracket to extend a mounting hole and get a new brake line made up. Works really well.

Sorry, forgot about the 1200 valve adjusters, a different breed. The rocker center shaft has to be free to rotate so it can adjust the valve lash. The hydro adjuster rotates it.

Is that the same engine with the knock in the earlier video? Very surprised it could even run if so.

Pull heads and replace the bent valves

I didn't count them but have you gotten all the courthouses done or do you have another bike to finish?

That looks like grease coming out of the final drive. Mine would do that for a few hundred miles after reassembly and fresh grease. I might overdo it on the grease.

Ive heard that before with one tooth off on the timing belts

Poor Goldwing. Looked like a nice 1800

I replaced the resistors with a solid copper wire because I couldn't see a reason to have resistor plugs as well as resistor caps. There wasn't any real difference in any performance that I could tell.

Kind of hard to get the performance stuff any more. Back in the day there were performance shops all over, displaying aluminum intakes, Holley carbs, Distributors. Those were the days.

Its tricky getting the surfaces clean and getting the Orings on the front cover positioned, but with patience and some grease to hold the Orings in place, it's not that bad.

Looks great!

Sounds like you've got a couple nice projects there.

I'm in Ca. I hadn't considered the low temps.

Tap water for temporary. Distilled water probably a good idea if you have hard water. I've used nothing but tap and never had any problems.

Can take quite awhile to burn out of the pipes as they heat further back.

Looks like one of those bikes you see in china with the basket loaded down with chickens Lol

Oh yes, lots of oil gets pumped to the valve train.

That looks Yummy!
