Tuned and Synch'ed
Hey All,
Thanks again for the input on my consideration of buying a Norge (esp Bill Hagan). I rode a 2008 this weekend and loved it, and hope to check out a 2012 8V Norge soon. One question though: is there any way to easily check if the engine has been rollerized? Is there a distinctive sound the flat vs. roller tappets make? Will pulling the valve covers reveal anything? Or do I just need to go by the word of the PO? I'd hate to get stuck with $2k in repairs right from the start.
Cheers-
Matt
