Known Issues
Cam Chain Tensioners:
Early Evolution engines (prior to 2006) had hydraulic cam chain tensioners that could wear and require replacement. The manual will detail inspection and replacement procedures.
Carburetor Performance:
CV carburetors can require tuning for altitude changes or aftermarket exhaust/intake modifications. The manual provides jetting and adjustment guidance.
