Hi all fitted new cct on Friday evening and she sounds like a bag of spanners still unfortunately, checked compression all seems fine time to strip down again for a closer inspection

Before you strip the bike too far, did you check that the cam sprockets and crank timing marks are aligned?

Tell us where you are Ben - there is help out there

Checked all the timing marks and all lined up well, im based in surrey and my brother is a mechanic so he's helping me with the rebuild, but he's just had a baby so pinning him down is a hard job at the moment

Happened to me TWICE. First time I ended up with 2 bent valves and cracked valve seats

From what your saying it sounds just the same

Welcome aboard Ben

I'm sorry to hear about your CCT woes.

If the compression is good then you shouldn't have bent any valves.
