That's correct, the exhaust tappet is the only one that's pressurized. The Guru's seem to think the oil pressure is way too high(70 psi at idle). Took a little off the spring in the Oil Pressure regulator, now she's sitting at about 60 cold, 25 psi hot, so that should solve that possibility. Welder fell through...taking the bike to work with me Tuesday night for a TIG weld. Primary cover still producing quite a puddle under the bike. took that BACK off again too and surgically cleaned both surfaces...Thinking about having that stupid thing TIG welded too
