Alternator bust!

Re Cams failure

Cheers Ray.Hope you have your s back by now?

I didn't pick mine up yet as after they put it back together there was one pot where the bottom gasket had an oil leak!
Then they didn't have the gasket and that took another 8 days plus then taking off the pot again and re-building. It was finally ready to collect last Tuesday week but I was on Easter holidays so told them to keep it until my return. Picking it up today or Monday. Don't know the cost but am expecting a hefty labour bill!

I will let the forum know the outcome of what they have done once I pick it up.
 
Picked her up on Saturday last and ticks over nice and quiet as it should!

Haven't seen invoice yet as collected bike after shop shut with spare key. However the bill was £375.00 which to be fair I don't feel is too bad. Had a couple of other jobs done such as front puncture repair (air leak from spoke?) or new tube plus new hose to top of head.

When I get the invoice I will be able to comment further.

Fitting the black ally panniers today/tomorrow in time for the Taffy Dakar in Brecon Beacons National Park Wales this weekend. Its an orienteering event off and on/or just road! Susie and I are looking forward to it. Our team is known as the Somerset Stelvios! :D

If anyone is interested from UK/Europe then 8 riders places left.

cheers
 
Re: replacement Cam Kt-warranty FOC parts

UPDATE

I just hope I got a Version C Mk3 cam kit fitted. Part number quoted on invoice is 1A002060 which was FOC

How do you know which version it is?
 
reading this has got me thinking i was in wale for the weekend and the right cylinder head started making a heavy knocking noise but only for a minute then disappeared and my valve clearance sounds like it needs doing again which is worrying asi only did them less than a 1000kms ago
does sound familier to anyone?
