Hello and welcome to the list Misha. You will meet some fine people here.


At about 6600 miles my camchain tensioner stripped some teeth at the end.
This caused a change in cam timing and the valves were introduced to the
pistons. Bent all intakes and two exhaust valves.The bike now has new
pistons,valves,head and camchain.  I will be sending a picture to the ST
site soon......

I did notice that you may be a future ST owner. I will tell you that the ST
is one of my favorite bikes I have ever owned. This is my seventh motorcycle
and second Triumph.  It is the best compromise between sport and tour IMO.

This incident,which I really do believe is isolated,did get me down for a
while(3 months) but I feel (and hope ) everything will be fine this time.

Any more questions feel free to ask.
