[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 975442, member: 3828"] First off, sorry for your problems. But I'm a bit confused by your report. You seem to be saying that you removed and replaced the CCT during a valve adjustment and tested that it was functioning properly, but then when you started the bike you bent all of your valves. Was this really a case of a failed CCT (ie the CCT allowed the chain to go slack on startup?) or did you perhaps have the cams mis-timed after the valve adjust? Important question: We'll never know about the first replacement CCT, but did the CCT that you just removed have the blue dot on it (new style part)? Those of us that are hoping that the new style CCT is better would be interested to know if any of them have started to lose tension and get noisy. [/QUOTE]
