I have an 82GL1100I That I need a tech answer for. Been doing a head gasket replacement, cause I found oil in the coolant. Took it all apart and was checking all the measurements on the valves, guides, lobes, bearingsand etc. The qustion that I have is, all the measurements fall in the newrange, all except the exaust lobes on all four cyclindersis at the bottomof the service limit, they measure 1.44. All the intake lobes showlittle or no ware. How is this possible? The bike has 42,000 miles on it. Look forward to hearing what you guys have to say.:(Radioman

If the lobes are smooth and not grooved I wouldn't worry about it.

Thanks for the reply. I sort of had that in the back of my mind, but it sure is nice to hear someone who knows his way around a wing say it. Waiting on gasket set, will start putting her back together again just as soon as they get here. I've gotten a lot of info from the forum cause most of my questions have been asked before. Thanks again, look forward to other Q&A. Radioman

All the lobes I have measured on the 82 cams have been in the 1.44 range too.
