    Do THESE cam lobes look OK?

    Imagine my disappointment to find this mess during the 24K service on my '18 RT. Everything looked fine at the 12K check. I've used only Castrol Power 1 4T 5W-40 since new. Clearances are within spec and have barely changed. You may have seen an earlier post from me relating a similar problem...

    Do these cam lobes look okay? 2017 R1200GSA

    2017 R1200 GSA - 35,7000 miles. Valve clearances have not changed since I checked at 500 miles and now three times thereafter. My last chance to go over the bike before the warranty expires. How do these look? Right Intake Right Exhaust Left Intake Left Exhaust

    Post here if you've had prematurely worn cam lobe(s) in your wethead

    We're hearing more stories about this issue in R bikes so post here if you're needing to replace camshaft(s), include year and miles if you will. Also, a word about how you discovered the issue, be it running behavior or as an incidental finding on a valve clearance check. Thanks
