Default cam chain and cam chain tensioner

ok there was a horrible sound inside my f2 head engine , it came sudenly so i replace the cam chain tensioner
for a brand new one that i bought it from a honda dealer.

(imerse the chain tensioner in clean oil before install it)
so it took me like 15 minutes to replace it and then i rode my bike for 3 or 5 days, and the horrible sound apeard again
but it was so intense this time. so i bought a brand new timing chain from the honda dealer and i replace it for the old one
and the noise past away.

I spent more time getting all the bike parts apart, than installing the new chain, you dont have to remove the head engine,
you only have to remove the cam shaft cover ,the camshaft trees and the small cover where you set the timing , the one by your
right leg. so radiator,and fairing,and front light and all of that, you have to remove it.

Inside, where the cam chain goes, i mean when you remove the cover by your right leg to get the chain out
you need to remove a plastic brown gide(chain gide) to take out the old chain and set the new one(chain)

so is "very highly recomended to use a tork meter tool and set the torcks from the service manual"
questions are welcome in my e mail or via messenger happy rides

Some punctuation might make your post more presentable and credible...

But thanks for the heads up about the cam chain-

Yeah no offense, but it was very hard to read that.

Umm but yeah.... How is someone going to know that the noise on their bike is the same noise you had? You didn't explain the noise, or when it happen for example cold start, warm. ect.

Talking thanks

you just made my life a whole lot easier. Cam chain on my F3 went too. Swapped it out and that did the trick. New chain direct from Honda plus an APE manual CCT should hold up quite nicely.
