[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 854732, member: 3828"] I'm not certain that all 2nd gen CCTs are the new and improved version. Make sure that yours has a blue dot and the plunger sticks out further (have to compare to pictures unless you have an old one to compare to). Having held (and fa-diddled) two different copies of the older, unimproved, wimpy spring-ed, original version CCT, and a my new and improved (currently installed) version, in my own hands, I would put the new one in whenever it is convenient (like during a valve check) rather than waiting for the dreaded bad noises. You've already been bitten once. Why risk it? It can go bad in a short time and is one of the very few things on these bikes that can leave you stranded in BFE. Besides that, all I have to say is: How the hell to you get that much mileage on your tires? My rear PR2 gave out at only ~ 9k miles and I ride like an old man. I find your mileages truly amazing.
