Good job djlnz, shim check ok at 20,000km,though no further. Cam chain should be checked at 50-60,000km.Triples from around 35,000 depending on the rider. Tensioner bodied and plungers are generally VERY high mileage, though the spring isn't. Spec on spring is 73mm new. The manual gives no minimum length, in my experience anything below 67-68mm indicates lack of spring pressure on the blade. The front rubbing guide is prone to fracture at its low mounting point if the chain is run loose. Bit of work their though, head has to be removed, and the liners resealed. The rear tensioner blade is the easy one. Check for stress or fracturing around the bolt mount at the base and where the plunger locates into the blade near the top..
And yes, they are good to work on!
Cheers Kerry
