[QUOTE="HaulinAshe, post: 367987, member: 1875"] Cam chain tensioner would be great. But like IonBeam said, it depends on how deep you are or are planning to go. It's not an easy swap. Your profile says you have an 04. If it was my 04 it would have over 100,000 miles on it. Mileage has a lot to do with cam chain and tensioner wear. But at four years of age, time is starting to run a close second. It's your call and there's no way I could give any better advice without a first-hand inspection. If the chain and tensioner are kept in good condition (along with obvious things like oil changes) then the cam chain gears should outlast the frame. :) [/QUOTE]
