    Was checking my valve clearances and found this IMG_2200.jpg
    Am I missing a piece of the casing that should be sitting under the cam bearing?
    Very worried.

    That looks like a casting flaw to me. Warranty item? You should at least get some kind of response from Husky NA.

    Also looks like you let in a good amount of dirt particles when removing your valve cover. Suggest next time to clean a little better before removing the cover to prevent this.

    Agreed, there was a bit of dust on the underside of the frame that i had not noticed when i was cleaning the rest of it. Away to take the bike to the dealer. I will let you know how I get on.

    ok , week 9 or 10 without a bike now.
    Dealer just phone me to tell me he finally has the new parts but the replacement cylinder head looks identical to the original one. ????

    Have I really been without this bike for most of the summer for no reason?
