I'm beginning to wonder if I'm entering an area of concern. I'm approaching 75K on my 2004 TC88 (stock internals, no mods). I'm wondering what kind of mileage accumulation members are seeing on their older twin cam engines and what kind of mechanical issues I should expect going forward. I have been inside the cam chest a couple of times for maintenance, including tensioner shoe replacement, servicing the oil pump, and cam bearing replacement, and I don't have a problem doing that. My engine does not consume any oil, the exhaust is clean and dry, it runs great and I think my noises are normal.
Any knowledgeable opinions about how far I can expect this engine to go without requiring teardown and overhaul will be welcomed. I love my bike but I worry just a bit about future reliability for long distance touring.
Please feel free to post your mileages and experiences.
