Triple cam chain pillar

[Paul Marx]

I know the subject has already come up but I cannot find the answer, so: which way does the cam chain pillar on a triple go? Towards the centre of the engine or towards the left?
Thanks
Paul

Do you mean the guide at the bottom? Offset towards the left.

Yes, the guide. So, offset towards the centre, away from the right hand centre main bearing.
Thanks.

once you have it corectly aligned and bolted up, mark it with a centre dot, one on the cases and another adjacent to it on the pedestal. I do this every time I see an engine that has not been done, saves the thinking phase in the future, never look back, never get it wrong, always visible.

Will do Clem, though I hope never to look in there again.

Mine was already marked. Dot next to the bearing.
