[QUOTE="TurtleShifter, post: 181018, member: 217"] In just retarding the cam timing, the WR would lose the e-start capability as the decomp pin would not be the proper length. Going to the YZ timed Hotcams eliminated this issue as they had the correct length pin. I believe one would need to grind of 1mm in length. I have seen threads about people doing this so that would allow the stock cam/e-start/new YZ timing to work correctly. When I got my cams from Hotcams they had put in the incorrect length decomp pin. The bike would struggle to turn over the e-start as there was too much compression. We had to take out the cam and send it back to them. I said that this extra labor was costing me $100 due there incompentancy. They were, "it's a race part, we can't warranty anything". I said, "no, it's a incompentancy issue on your part as someone put in the incorrect length decomp pin. That is not part of the manufacturing tolerances of the cam itself":foul:. They also own Pivot Works so they comped me a front and back set of wheel bearings and a complete fork rebuild kit:thumb:.
