Timing chain replacement through top end
Hello everyone, after 10 000klms on our trip back to Australia the timing chain on my XT 600Z 88 3AJ as started to make way to much noise and needs to be replaced. Reading the Haynes manual it states that the entire engine needs to be pulled down to do this. But I have heard that it can be done through the top end by attaching the replacement chain and threading on. Has Anyone done this? And if so are there any tricks or things to look out for?
Thanks very much in advance for any info
