Oh they do, not too hard to see and you got problems if they don't. Did you pull the plugs?

 

Yes, the plugs are/were out.
I’m guessing clutch slip is the root cause.
Looks like I’m draining & removing he primary cover.
Not THAT big of a deal, as I have a new cover to put on anyway, but I wasn’t planning to pull that until I had the new fairing on and clutch cable run.
Everything wants to be done first. 😂

 

If you can slip the clutch by pulling on the rear wheel while in 6th gear, I wanna see your biceps.

 

I’m not sure what the issue was/is, but in order to activate the rockers/valves, I had to pull the rear footboard, left exhaust, and primary cover to turn the motor over w/ the crank bolt.

Ill deal with that after I get it back together and running.

 

Is your drive belt loose and just slipping? Teeth on the pulleys look ok?
Something should of moved.

 

Agreed.
The belt appears to be good.
I’ll throw the stock pivot arm back in it and see if that has any impact. It shouldn’t, but I don’t understand what the hell is going on yet.
