Hey everyone,
Tore top end apart today and left cylinder cam journals and cam ends are shot-completely ground down.
Anyways I'm in the market for a used cylinder head and cams. Wanted to try here before ebay.
Its a 2001 GS500, but it looks like newer years also fit as long as tach is changed.
Thanks!

Someone should try to machine the cam ends on the thing to take a roller bearing. That will let you get rid of that end float completely.
But you'd have to find a way to get some oil into the shim/valve contact area. Now it gets through the cam journals.
Cool.
Buddha.
I have a head and cams off a 2004. Just needs to be cleaned up and installed. PM me for price if your still looking for one.
