I have a webcam with stock rockers. I have had this set-up for about a year now and have no probs. But, when I last looked at them,the rockers were looking pretty bad, so I am now getting them hardfaced. So I would recommend getting the rockers hardfaced, it will save you money in the long run.


If you get a XR400 cam you can leave your rockers stock:D

bjonesta,

I put a Web 450/451 cam in mine, using the stock rockers, nearly two years ago and they look as good now as they did then. Maybe it's the Mobil 1 I use?

I see you're from Toledo... where do you ride? I go to Maumee now and then... have you been there?

I have a White Brothers Track cam in mine and didn't do anything with the rockers. I have had no problems as of yet. I change my oil quite often, with good oil. It is something to keep an eye on though. ;)
