SF 750 Cam Flanges with Pinch Bolt Modification

No problem whatsoever Mike. Van Dijk here in Holland developed it and the construction works very well. Have it in my SF2 for some time now.

David,

The mod needed at the cam chain sprocket is to retain balance of the camshaft assembly, the flange with the pinch clamp is quite a bit heavier on one side.  As Marnix has stated, it works very well and is easy to fit.  The hole in the sprocket won't weaken it enough to create any issues.

Marnix' rockers are stock late type, commonly referred to as "SFC" type, but were fitted to at least SF3 models, if not late SF2s also.  Looks like they have a stellite or similar plate brazed to them for the follower face, also a common repair/reclaimation bodge process.  In reality, probably a lot more durable and accurate than a stock rocker!

Yeah, so far the stellite cam followers on the rockers work perfectly and I expect them to live a lot longer than the chromed ones.

These light rockers came with these SF2 from new.

The pinch bolt construction is only useful when the camshaft is no longer a tight fit in the flanges.

Okej Piet and Marnix, I understand. So if i have worn rockers I can get them modified. Just need to find a person who can do it...
