valve cover off ...
Yes, unfortunately. Quite an operation, I'd suggest to first check your other options. In more than 300.000 km of riding XT6's I never had a timing chain jump a tooth ...
If you decide to take the cover off, do not forget the nastily hidden bolt between the upper engine mount. I guess that you do not have to drop the engine, just remove the carburettors and 'rotate' the cover off backwards. This is how it is on the older XT6's.
