 +Thanks to Maxeffort of the XLForum for the following Flywheel Degree Charts of these various cams.((Maxeffort at this post: http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=2074322)) 
 + 
 +The measurements are based on the .053 lift specs. Also, take note that the predominance of the intake valve opening occurs on one rotation of the flywheel and the predominance of the exhaust valve opening occurs on the next rotation of the flywheel. It takes two full rotations (720°) of the flywheel to complete the four-cycle process. (This view of the flywheel would be from the right side of the engine.)

 +The woodruff key on the pinion shaft has ben subject to shearing. \\ 
 +There is a bronze oil pump gear available which is considered an upgrade but that won't stop the key from shearing. \\
 +What happens is the crank develops a little run-out (especially when the power level is raised). ((http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=1666277 of the XLFORUM http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=1666277)) \\
 +This causes the teeth of the steel oil pump drive gear to wear badly on one side. \\
 +Generally, 180° from the worn teeth (front of tooth pitch) you'll see almost no wear at all so you have to inspect all the way around the gear (rear tooth pitch). \\
 +If you see them sharpening like the above photo, you're on borrowed time. \\
 +When one of these steel gears fails, it's really ugly and makes a mess and can damage a lot of other things as well. \\
 +The bronze gear solves the problem nicely though. It's a Buell piece that came out in 2006. \\
 +This was a much worse problem on Buells due to the higher power levels. \\
 +But at 65hp, it's not nearly so big of an issue, so HD never bothered to put them in XL's probably due to cost. \\
 +It's a good upgrade when hopping up an XL and it's cheap insurance against a catastrophic failure. \\
 +You'll need a tool to lock the pinion gear for removal or installation. \\
 +It's very important to hold the crank still from this side (not the primary side) when torquing the pinion nut. \\
 +If you, for example, put the bike in gear and hold the rear brake and torque on the nut, you run the very real risk of knocking the crank out of true. \\
 +It's not designed to transmit torque from one side to the other and it tries to twist the crankpin connection. \\
 +Now, with respect to the key shearing, it's a very common issue particularly when heavy valve springs are used. \\
 +The caption describes the fix, Loctite red and 70ft-lbs instead of the factory specified 50ft-lbs. You won't have this issue again. \\
