That sucks. This is the first roller follower failure I have seen.

On the plus side, the cam and crank gears are cheap. You can also remove the gear on the crank without splitting the cases. ...

You already have a KPX, so doing that swap on a Hawk just seems like a lot of work for no reason. I would just figure out this failure/problem and get it back up and running. Maybe look into the...

The only way to really know would be to take things apart. If the roller follower roller did collapse it would be pretty obvious. Motocult sells the WGK roller followers, but be warned they are not...

If I am wrong, PROVE me wrong. Provide reputable sources to back your claim, or do the math yourself and post it here (like I did) to prove me wrong.

Otherwise, stop talking. You're not only...

Meh, it will probably be fine. Most of the engine is also splash oiled so it will likely be ok. The valvetrain would be the thing that suffered the most. Worst case, it needs a top end, and those are...

Gearing does change the amount of torque at the rear wheel. That's what gear ratios do, divide rpm and multiply torque. Horsepower doesn't change because it is a function of rpm and torque. Changing...
