Default Cam re-install
Does this look right? I've tried looking at references but my 3d cam doesn't have the 2 dots like most of the refs I've seen. Mine has a hash mark.

It looks good to me. Just for reference, here is another set of pics of a cam install. It's from an older bike that uses the coarse gears, but the principle is the same, just replace some of the hashes with dots and you're ok. Camshaft Install Pics
