Re: NC30 - Removing rocker arms
Hi Luke,I looked at an old head that i have,one that i have allready taken the rockers out of,
The bad news is you dont have to remove the screws,it's a long time since i have done this,anyway i have got some pics so that you can see what i did,If you get a can of brake or carb cleaner and spray the rockers and shafts
to remove the oil from between them you can use the rocker in a twisting motion to slide the shaft inwards to remove them,See pics sorry it may be a bit late.

Re: NC30 - Removing rocker arms
Hey Hunter
Yeah, I figured that out after I moved one of the the rocker rods back when drilling the bolt! Still, I now have them all out anyway and have sourced replacements so no dramas
Now onto the stuck water pump...

Re: NC30 - Removing rocker arms
Man, sounds like you're having similar problems to me, only worse. I'm pulling the rear head off tomorrow, hopefully I don't run into any major problems, already found a few stripped threads from the last noob who played with my bike without a torque wrench.
Good luck!
