Yamaha TDM 850 cam chain replacement - setting camshafts to refit the chain with simple tool!

The trickiest part when you're replacing the cam chain is to hold both camshafts in position at the same time, unless you're an octopus! Tool made from stuff that was already kicking about in the workshop: M6 x 10 x 17 "barrel" nuts from a defunkt IK** ahem flatpack table and a length of M6 threaded rod. Barrel nuts are available from any good woodworking store. Have fun! Any music you might hear in the background is not me singing.
