I would like to "play" a little with my cam timing.
Why are you saying that it won't last...? A lot of cars and bikes are using adjustable cam sprockets, without any problem...

I am guessing that as the XT600 uses a fundamentally de-tuned engine no-one has bothered producing an adjustable camshaft sprocket for it - all the ones I have come across have been in racing applications.
Just had a quick look and couldn't find any for a single apart from a crf450, a machine that gets raced a lot.....

I think the adjustable sprockets would apply more to engines with separate intake and exhaust cams so you can play with advance, and overlap. On a single cam you would pretty much be advancing or retding the cam timing.

I'm searching for the adj. sprocket, because i'm going to install a stage 2 or 3 cam (280o duration, 10+mm lift) and i thought that it will be nice to have some 5o adjustment of the cam timing, for better results on the dyno.

I'm thinking less that one tooth, usually less than 5 degrees if I recall.
