thank you guys for the welcome . I will be starting my engine repairs by the need to change out the cam bearings and bushings . have the bushings out already but from what I am reading I will need a bearing tool so I don't loose pins into case (that would be a bummer ) been checking and found something from vtwin manufacturing but they want 160 bucks . maybe I can borrow one someware
