Re: Low oil pressure?
Before you buy a new engine please ensure that you are using an OEM filter oil filter and not an aftermarket diaphragm type. In some cases this type of oil filter causes back pressure which makes the oil pressure release valve dump oil back into the sump causing a drop in oil pressure in the rest of...

Re: Cams 254deg
I know of no cams using 254/254, The nearest are Moriwaki ST1 cams at 255/249 measured at 1mm lift.
How reliable is the information you have been given?
If these cams are Moriwaki's then you have a decent street cam set.

All the Revolution Racing VTR1000f Firestorms (ST2 and ST3 raced using OEM CCTs without issue. As they were being raced also under the banner of ...

Re: Hi from Aberdeenshire
Welcome to the club.
I go fishing on the Dee during the first week of May every year and stay at the Feughside Hotel at Banchory,
There are always loads of bikers on the carpark so it must be on the "rideout" route.
Hope to see you there over the Bank Holiday!
