a big thx to everyone that helped, especially OMR, you are so wise!

took over 5 hours total.

saved myself $350.00

tightened everything, wrapped up my tools, took it for a spin, GHRRRR, i was SO pissed.

opened it back up, re-did it. the bike sound ALOT better.

but i still have this small rattling noise at 5,500rpm..what else can it be?
thats the same **** that happened to me , replaced it(pain in the ***), and it fixed one rattle,but I stilll got a rattle at @ 7,500rpm's. **** it just ride it till it blows!

stretches the chain and puts alot of undue wear on the cam and the head because it is pulling down on the cam
