ya think ?
inspecting the sparkplugs should reveal which head gasket is bad. expect to see traces of coolant and a perfectly clean plug.
unless an oem chain was badly rusted it shouldn't need replacement until after 20,000 miles.
level in reserve tank does not always show coolant level in the system, why it's best to check under the rad cap, not the bottle.
does your fan kick in when temp is high ? you stated that it never overheated, but if coolant quantity is too low and below the sensor, temp...
time to test compression and inspect sparkplugs. are you certain float height settings are all correct ? what #s were you using ? could be a...
riding with valve cover removed=bad idea :toiletclaw: oil will get everywhere. what is your history with this bike ?
one is usual, depends upon testing results, raise for midrange adjustments.
