Exhaust Cam and Chain

[Down1Undah]

Gen 1 2006
Hello everyone ran into a problem during valve adjustment,
Found out some of the valve clearances on the exhaust side were out of spec, changed them and went to put in my exhaust cam, but I am having a lot trouble with putting the exhaust cam back in while keeping it in time with the marks, was wondering what the best course of action would be? If there are any tricks? Do both cams have to come out for this? Any advice would help, thanks ! Ill be happy to answer any questions you guys have

i marked the timing marks and matching chain links with a sharpie then zip tied the can sprocket to the chain so they don’t move from each other

look for a very good mechanic or give the bike to a shop.

if you are not familary with that job to ass. the camshafts and make a fault while trying this,
lots of issues (bent valves etc.) can come up and the repair crosses superfast the 1500 € line - only for the material.

even for a very experienced mechanic, this work is a really fiddly job
