P500 Valve adjust problem

[Azrider]

So I spent all the time to get down to adjusting valves (seats removed, crank bolt cover,battery,etc) I have done this on other Hondas but what a job on this machine. When I tried to align the T mark my notch on case sits @ 5 o'clock and not at 3 or 9 so it is not possible to line up as usual. I was curious if anyone else has run across same problem

Haven't done a VA and don't plan on it unless or until it becomes hard to start, or any other sort of manifestation.

Saw this issue on another forum. Looks like they machined some incorrectly, kinda scary to think what else is that way, but you will prob have to make a new mark or guess where it should be. kinda crazy...I havent done my valve adjustment, hopefully dont have this issue.

Rotate your engine while watching the valves. When they are fully closed.....cam lobes off the valve, check and adjust.
Quick and simple
