Cam tear down
Did the tear down today, good day for a newbie now for the build at this time staying with the stock set up. all went well but I would not go from the top again I would spend the money for the push rods.
There is one concern at this point the cams all have a small signs of wear but I don't now if it is a problem no grove just some wear.
will post pics of the tensioners later but like all the front had some pitting and the rear was at about 50% SO Glad I did this with 30k.

RE: Cam tear down
I am sure your cams are fine. Some wear is normal. Just be sure and put the lifters back in the original positions, don't swap them around. Same goes for the pushrods if you went in from the top and reused the originals. I am working on a tc88 now with 32k miles. Front shoe looks new, rear shoe is 50% gone. So definately something that needs to be checked every 25k miles. For the average rider thats aboutevery 4 or 5 years.
