CYLINDER HEAD AND VALVES | DISASSEMBLY, INSPECTION AND REASSEMBLY INSPECTION

14. Inspect the head very carefully for cracks and other damage. If cracks are found, a new head will be required. Check the cam bearing surfaces for wear and evidence of seizure. Check the camshafts and followers for wear as well (see Section 9).
15. Using a precision straightedge and a feeler gauge, check the head gasket mating surface for warpage. Lay the straightedge lengthways, across the head and diagonally (corner-to-corner), intersecting the head stud holes, and try to slip a feeler gauge under it, on either side of each combustion chamber. The gauge should be the same thickness as the cylinder head warp limit listed in the Chapter's Specifications. If the feeler gauge can be inserted between the head and the straightedge, the head is warped and must either be machined or, if warpage is excessive, replaced with a new one.
16. Examine the valve seats in each of the combustion chambers. If they are pitted, cracked or burned, the head will require valve service that's beyond the scope of the home mechanic. Measure the valve seat width and compare it to this Chapter's Specifications (see illustration). If it exceeds the service limit, or if it varies around its circumference, valve service work is required.
17. Clean the valve guides to remove any carbon build-up, and then measure the inside diameters of the guides (at both ends and the center of the guide) with a small hole gauge and micrometer (see illustrations). Record the measurements for future reference. These measurements, along with the valve stem diameter measurements, will enable you to compute the valve stem-to-guide clearance.

COOLING SYSTEM

RADIATOR | REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION REMOVAL WARNING! The engine must be completely cool before carrying out this procedure.

1. Remove both middle fairing sections as described in Chapter 8.
2. Drain the cooling system as described in Chapter 1.
3. Release their retaining clips and disconnect the overflow hose and air bleed hose from the top rear of the radiator (see illustration). Slacken their clamps and pull the main coolant hoses off their unions at the top and bottom of the radiator (see illustrations).
4. Disconnect the fan wiring connector behind the radiator (see illustration 4.4).
5. Remove the radiator lower mounting bolt and collar (see illustration).
6. Remove the radiator top mounting bolt and collar from the left side, and then move the radiator to the right to disengage it from its mounting peg (see illustrations).
