Hows it going guys, I bought a set of SE 204s from a member here that came with new lifters and rocker arms. Since I will have to open up the rocker boxes anyway is there any issue reusing the stock Pushrods? Its a 2012 RGU 103 TC with a little over 18k miles on it.

 

as long as the cam shares the same base circle as stock cams, won't be a problem at all, when I installed Andrews 57H cams in my 2016 SGS, I reused my stock push rods, some builders push one piece (non-adjustable) push rods.

 

Unless you for some reason have to replace the rocker arms you will save yourself a lot of work by going to adjustable push rods.

 

Cams came with a set of rocker lockers as well so I figured Id just do it all while Im at it.

 

I believe the SE204 cams have the same base circle as OEM cams. You could always measure them with a digital caliper and compare with the OEM cams.....

I run SE203 cams, with OEM, solid pushrods in my '03 Heritage. It's quieter than my '01 Springer w/ OEM cams & OEM pushrods...

I too would reuse the OEM pushrods... I always prefer solid pushrods to adjustable pushrods whenever possible.

I could give a couple practical reasons, but bottom line is I prefer solid to adjustable.

I don't see going through the top as a ton of extra work.. I've had the rockers off my 2003 Heritage at least 5x over the years for various reasons... just not that much work to me..

I even ordered a custom size set of Smith Brothers solid pushrods for one of my bikes. It had OEM base circle cams, but I ordered a custom size just to get a little more preload in the lifters... I measured twice, ordered once...
