Hydro lifters never need adjusting, they sound like they do but there is nothing to adjust. |

Which raises the question...What IS all that "valve train" noise if there is zero lash? When my neighbor converted his Bug to hyd. lifters it became MUCH quieter. |

One of the reasons I bought a Buell in the first place! Less maintenance = more ride time. Of course still following the maint schedule. |

Ridrx, if you want to hear noise, listen to a Buell with solid lifters. |
