Title: WHEN WERE ROLLER TAPPETS INSTALLED ON 1200'S?
Post by: Spuddy on September 23, 2015, 04:31:20 PM

I have a '13 Stelvio.  Should I be concerned?

Mid 2012.  You should be in the clear but it depends on BUILD date rather then year of registration.

The numbers are in another thread, (Not that I'd really trust them.) but just whip a rocker cover off and have a look.

Out of curiosity . . . is it obvious once you peek into the rockerbox?
photo?

I don't have this potential issue on the 1200Sport, but I'm intrigued as heck after seeing the subject in recent posts.

Yes, photos have been posted multiple times. I can't post pics at the moment so I suggest a quick search of 8V threads.
