Hi Kev,

I'll install stg1 HotCam tomorrow. I've changed the motor oil a month ago. Rode aprox 700km. After the instalation of Hot Cam do i need to change the oil again ?

forgot to say...my hotcam is second hand

Good afternoon Kev. He has more than one type of hotcam available for XT660? I am thinking of putting one in my 66, I do not know how to buy, if an original piece yamaha, you can enter the code?

Fred what year is a 66 XT660?

There are 3 stages of hot cams that will fit the XT660X/R/Z. They will all fit but you have to use all the decompressioner parts from the Raptor 700 as well otherwise the Hot Cam does not fit in the XT.

I have a complete Raptor 700 cam for sale right now if you are interested.

I use 609 locktite

Morning Kev, thanks for clarifying. I bought from a person here in Brazil, a kit of the abduction, he was full when I asked for you I was in negotiation. I do not know which model is this cam, it did not come in original packaging, I install, I take the candle and rotate the engine with the hand carefully, then I will go with 66, then I will talk about it. My 66 is 2008, is blue, the red was now launched in 2009 in Brazil, 1 66 was launched in 2005, before there was XT600E. Thank you for your help.
