TOAK The thread of all knowledge VII

'03 was the first year for non-forged cranks, so run-out needs to be measured. I think, but Lou may know better, that a Baisley spring and check valve will suffice for oil flow, along with Cyco tensioner shoes. If Mark were putting 15,000/20,000 miles a year on it, I would suggest the total upgrade of the camchest.
I am ready to be shot down in flames over this.

Thanks Greg. I wasn't sure if that was the case on the '03 or not.
I would still inspect those shoes regularly though!

No flames, but the OE was a **** setup and if I planned to keep my bike for a long time I would probably do it anyway sooner rather than later.

I got to meet Bert briefly when at OGMark's.
That guy is on a whole other level..
Here's a vid on inspecting cam chain tensioners. Softy, dyna but still applies.

I am doing better Tracy when I do what I am supposed to do. Seems that when I am non-compliant and try and do too much stuff is when it hurts the most. I am encouraged that I have broken the code on sleep now which seems to help ALOT! I keep doing my exercises.

The offer stands...maybe I will just let you bring and play your "Now That's What I call Polka"CD's as we work. How's that? 
I am super excited...almost to the point of wanting to also do the chain tensioner and compensator while we are in there, but gotta watch the $$$

It's a more efficient then the standard overdrive.
Standard over drive is 93% efficient
DD6 is 99% efficient
