Has anybody had any problems with the MikesXS cam chain Guides? I heard a rumor that some were bad. Just want to verify before sticking one in my motor. I hope this is just a rumor.
I just replaced my OEM guide with one that came from MikesXS (ordered from 650 Central) and am not too pleased. I've only put about 100 miles on the bike since I got it back together and it's showing signs of failure already. Now I have not torn the engine down again so I don't know 100% what going on in there but I've got small bits of plastic and tiny pieces of aluminum in the oil filter (as it did before) and it sound just like it did before I replaced it. I will be trying to hunt down an OE guide soon and will gladly pay a little more for it if it lasts for more than 100 miles lol.
