[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 368201, member: 277"] Hmmm, I suspect that the typical FJR do-it-yourselfer with a typical set of home garage mechanics tools will find the cam chain tensioner's engine bolts to be a fiddly access problem. I also suspect that the adjuster's bolt in the end of the cam chain tensioner will drive the average home mechanic insane. The hole in the frame that's on the cam chain tensioner side will become a black hole into the stygian depths for the bolt and/or washer PDQ. Thank goodness the parts are magnetic... One of the two cam chain tensioner's retainer bolts is fairly accessible but the other will probably be a problem for an average mechanic. I, on the other hand had no problem at all -- with that engine just sittin' there on the floor :bad: [/QUOTE]
