Cam and cam bearing swap in my dads '11 Harley Ultra Screaming Eagle. Rear cam bearing went bad (one roller chewed up) causing a squeal when started. Upgraded Woods cams and put in Fuel Motto adjustable push rods. Replaced secondary chain tensioner as guide was heavily worn. The primary guide looked good.
Bad cam bearing for rear cylinder. Original and junk compared to the replacement Koyo which has double the rollers.

The twin cam Harley's have lots of issues with cam chain tensioners. Best bet is eliminate chain and tensioners all together and go with a gear cam set up.
He is thinking about that. Only 20k miles on it and I was surprised at the wear on the one tensionerOriginally Posted by zxgto06
