Look at them two pins, huge wearing. There's even a flat spot on one of the rollers. The other two were in great shape but the rollers were showing a little wear.
I'm thinking of going with HyLift Johnson lifters. They are a reasonable price, assuming I can have them by this weekend. The problem is I'd like to be cranking her over no later than next weekend. I've taken a few days off for my birthday and have a four-day weekend and I'd like a running motor by the end of it.
Edit: Also, I have no idea how long these were in the bike but it does show that Jims are not bulletproof. I'm guessing the two bad ones were the exhaust tappets.
