I brought Mr. Meguro in, and put him on the lift to get him running. However after looking at all the red RTV silicon I decided to have a look first.
I pulled the inspection/tappet adjuster cover, and saw this.
There should be a law against the making, and sale of RTV silicone.
As I dug deeper I found this.
Here is the real kicker. this is plugging the oil supply to the rocker arms.
Here is looking down the pushrod tunnel. Guess I better remove the head.
More RTV.
I found a company that custom makes gaskets, and am having them make me a new head gasket. Now I am trying to decide if I should re-ring it. I would need to have rings custom made also, but found a company that can do that for me.

I like vintage bikes because they take me away from the clutter of technology that I work with everyday and back to a simpler time of mechanical elegance and simplicity.. "ninadm"
