    Gday all  bran new to this forum.. i have a 2002 ultra with 69.000 klms racked up. the cam gear has not been looked at yet. sounds quite (no noises) down in the cam chest area.  now, if the cam chain tentioners were worn out, do they make a noise indicating that they are stuffed? does this happen,   any advice would be great.      cheers Pricey.

    pricey, it is etiquette to go to the "introductions" first and tell all a bit about yourself before posting in the boards area. Having said that, welcome aboard.... you may or may not get a reply till you do depending on who reads your post.

    got the bike back from the  bike shop last week, inner camchain 5% worn,  outer chain about 25% worn, all other parts were in good nic...  so at 69,000 klms ,nearly all on HD mineral oil. not bad.      anyways, a bit of peace of mind now.       i did have to replace inner plastic breathers for up graded alloy ones          cheers pricey
