Default RE: Saito 115 cam lubrication

>>>I've heard of quite a few other folks who've ended up with dry camshaft bushes because they perform no manual lubrication or think that oil dripped down the pushrod tubes will make its way into the cambox (which it wont). >>>

If the pushrod tubes go down to the lifters, how could the oil not reach the cam? There must be a tiny bit of clearance around the lifters ... ? granted it wouldn't get there too fast though, but overnight?

Thanks,

Ernie
