OEM or rebuild markings? - SV650.org

23-06-12, 06:42 PM

Hi all,

I am just cleaning up my SV650 drag kart engine to check whats what and I have just taken 1 of the cam covers off to check to see what condition everything is in ie oil colour and generally how clean everything is.

Here are some photos of the cams and sprockets, am I correct that those are from when someone might have replaced the cam chain or are they OEM? Im guessing this engine has had some work done to it at some point?

thoes look OEM, rotate the engine and if the timimg marks all are correct then they are OEM and not upgraded to pointy cams

The markings are used so you can time them up, look in the service manual/haynes and you will see.
