[QUOTE="joedrum, post: 18033, member: 98"] well im not saying its the fix all .....and my noises are somwhat different but it could be different degrees of thesame problem .....im sure pounding like this just gets worst with higher degrees of noise ....and it got to clobble the springs into a very weak condition ....but the springs are the great cushioning system that would insure this to happen for long time without drastic outcome of total failure that sound seems like it could do on dan thought gerry i bet your scavenging pump is block up on yours causing your main pump to run short on oil ....that back cover can hold a lot of oil in it ..dam near all the oil a goldwing has ...nice conculsion dan it just may be right on... after going over the 75 cams i couldnt beleave how lumpy they seem going around the lobe ....you could see the every move the grinding machine made and over time it just got more pronowced ....i did it all by hand with a thin cutoff wheel that was slightly flexable that went on a 4" grinder and with a lot of touch rough out all the luppyness in the lobes checking it in the light till it was smooth with a satin finish from the rough wheel ...and after that cut the scatches out with some fine micro shine sanding film its plastic but any emory coth type stuff would work .......and when your roughing it out always use circular motion with touch and no canyyon cutting gooves ....you never want to push down any further or harder than 1/2 thrichness of the grit your dealing with so it stays sharp and waist has a place to get out ....keep the disc clean cam clean ....ahhh anyway i think i got my point accross the rockers need done to .... when you take it apart you sould be able to tell it going on just by looking ....that discoloratoin is a big sign on the rockers ....earlyer in the post i discribed how i went about doing the cam change and timing thing that all went real well except for the replacing the timing mark cover before starting ....it was diffitnitly the best way ive ever done the timing belt deal and tensioner job....... :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
