    Well I ordered all 4 bearings, no point in replacing 1 as only a tenner
    each. Also a full gasket set and soft link for the camchain. I'll have
    the head and barrels bead or vapor blasted and take the engine out the
    frame anyway to freshen up the chassis paint. While I'm at it any bits
    of suffering chrome will get restored.

    The cam cover looks as if it was painted black at some time, what would
    be original? and I assume it is meant to have a gasket compound applied
    on reassembly?

  2. Original is plain metal. A gasket compound is desirable, yes.

    Did Richard deliver the new silencers?
