Re: Removing cam when changing chain
you will need to remove the cams for sure. Careful undoing the cam caps and undo each bolt evenly or you risk cracking the cam caps.

Re: Removing cam when changing chain
remove the cams, support the chain somehow (rest an Allen key through the chain and on the head, or tie up with a bit of string to the mirror) then remove it, if you dont support it, it will fall down and coil up
