so my kids 350 x has a worn cam and the head /box are both worn too, whats the common fix for this (if any). I was told possible machined and roller bearings, and are cams available to fix this??

You can still buy the cam from Service Honda. For a 1986 anyway.

Do you think this happened because the valves were never adjusted?

There are a couple of youtube video's out there, with what seems like a little coverage on this matter?

If the top end is completely worn, the bottom end may need some work too.

This is starting to sound very expensive.

its all messed up, cylinder and piston are good, getting new rod and bottom bearing and hopefully a easy fix for head, had damn aftermarket filter on farb, no air box, have new stock airbox for after repairs, dirty dirt!!

No easy fix for that head, expensive, yes.

Try to find another head.....

I am with DC. Get a good used head off ebay, or even good used top end.
