Blast, bad form etc. I have the Genuine (1982) Kawasaki Service Manual. Would
that be of any use instead?

Um, I tend to keep manuals on the "you never know" basis but I can
certainly lend you one.

On one - it might be the Kawasaki 750 manual actually - they gave the
torque for the cam caps as 70-80ft/lbs.

Yes, they'd misplaced a decimal point. Luckily I look at it, thought:
"That *can't* be right..." and double-checked with a Kawasaki dealer.

Of course the Haynes is more of an "it never knows" basis :-^)

( Though you could argue that BOL implies: "it knows, but it knows
wrong". )

Happy Christmas to all

My mate had a theory that HBOL knew the stuff .. it just expected you to
also know the stuff, so all it really needed to say was aimed at giving some
mild encouragement and to show pretty pictures of greasy hands.

Happy Christmas from me too ..
