"Get a Big Twin" they said. "It'll be fun" they said. Cam plate and oil pump crapped

I’m sure you are looking to have this done with new parts when my motor and 50,000 I noticed a metal discoloration on the cam lobe which started the whole warranty process. They were well they went in and changed quite a few things .so I may or may not need it changed you are welcome to any of these parts. Of course new would be best ,

Right now, I'm looking at this https://www.shoputahharley.com/produ...SABEgLkifD_BwE
I can't find a better price. The oil pump and cam plate costs that much with anyone else, and this one has the chains and shoes. So I'll replace with the exact thing I have.

I do have a set of Koyo Inner Cam Bearings (B148) that are yours if want them , no charge .. I realize is easy to spend someone else's money but just pointing out options .. The Bearings are Critical and makes me wonder if they were done looking at your photos ..

Put gear driven cams Andrews 21 G in the 04 GeezerGlide about a year after I got it and never looked back...

Man, I wish I could afford the gear drive. But with having to buy the cams as well as the cam plate, gear drive, and oil pump, $$$$ out of my reach when I'm struggling to come up with side work to finance the repair AND my upcoming wedding. I think the S&S will be a good compromise.

Well, after a very long time of throwing extra cash in a coffee can, I ordered the S&S oil pump and cam plate. I then ordered the S&S cam tensioner shoes. Now, I wait.........

Once again spending money for someone else but would find a way to Add Cams ( Lot of choices for not that much ) and S&S Adjustable Push Rods as well ..

Already have the adjustable pushrods too. Remember, my bike had the SE cam plate upgrade before I got it.
