Hey clayton, in regards to the original cams, you were right, It didn't give me any problems until that night when I was on my way home from work when I started hearing this clanking noise but I was still able to ride the bike all the way home and I took it to the dealer a few days later & by the way the bike sounded the service dept. thought that I was gonna need a whole new motor and I told them to do whatever was necessary and they were honest enough to tell me that all my bike needed was just a cam repair kit and they also replaced the oil pump and now itruns like new again. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones then.
