Hello. Yesterday I braked into pieces my fazer's cct and fix it today.
I were fixed a 2010 kawasaki zx6r cct a while ago, it's a simple rod (with stoper) and a spring. Because of sping aging, cct wasn't extending enough and it was weak. So I made a spacer for it. Spring got some preload with washer and I increased the kawi's cct's spring preload until desired force for cct working.
It's pretty fine for now. I think it'll run for 2 seasons more with that cct without problems, because it's really simple design and stoper's spring is independed from main spring (which extrudes cam tensioner).
so I decided to take a look what's what inside of fz6 cct... And it's a TERRIBLE THINKING.
DON'T TAKE IT APART INTO PIECES. IT'S VERY VERY HARD TO ASSEMBLE ALL OF THAT PARTS PROPERLY!!!:spank:
Also it's not working truly correct now:
I can extrude the CCT with flat screwdriver from it's bottom. I don't know what that screw's name (the screw which shrinks cct's rod).
But when I pushed the cct rod to inside, there is not any movement so locking mechanism is working (in fact there is no locking mechanism because cct extends with rotary movements and if I push the rod, I'm applying horizontal movement to cct so there is no shrinking).
I'll buy a brand new cct from Yami dealer couple months later.

outside to inside: cct barrel, wider and spring, spacer, thinner spring, yellow rod.
cct rod is fixing to yellow rod's grooved end and thinner spring preloads cct rod and and yellow rod.
wider spring rotates yellow rod and yellow rod with cct rod extrudes (because yellow rod's grooves).
If wider spring not preloaded truly, cct not extends itself.
I tried maybe 100 times but there is no perfect working condition. probably I weakened that spring when trying to fix the cct again and again
Sorry for my lacky and diry English. I hope this thread will warn everyone and no one will broke their properly working cct.
Thank you for all comments.
If anyone has an idea for make my bike's cct stronger, I'll appreciate for that (expect buying a new one :eyebrow
p.s. to admin/supervisor: I couldn't embed the photos correctly, please fix that for me. Thanks.
