Anyone have a spare 350 front cylinder pushrod? I know I could get one from NLM, but the exchange rate, shipping cost, 10% "USA surcharge" and the long wait always make me depressed.
I was checking valve clearances on my recently resurrected K2 on Saturday and was getting wonky readings on the exhaust valve. One time clearance would be correct, I'd check it again and it would be loose. Spun the pushrod - wobble, wobble. Bent about 4 mm. In the box of extra bits that came with the bike were used top end gaskets and valves. I'm guessing someone let the timing belt go too long, teeth stripped and the exhaust valve got together with the piston. Guess they didn't notice the pushrod was bent.
