The exhaust sprocket seems to be sitting closer to the head than the inlet (or is that just the picture?)

I can't really imagine someone wanting to remove the cam sprocket to replace the belt?

Call me cynical, but its a strange failure, i would put money possibly on the garage that did the work fudging something up... I did something similar once and ended up with lots of bent valves shortly after i did the belt (not a honda). Perhaps the sprocket was weakened somehow on removal or refitting?

It's a long life stainless exhaust. Was made last year. Must have been due to same reason as you.

Give me a pm if interested.

Desperately need the 4ws main steering sensor behind the steering wheel. Been searching for it for over a month now.

So if the Cam timing marks are still lined up...
This probably only needed the Cam gear replacing and new belt, to get it back on the road?
