Default Are the cams made in China?

Agreed on the cams. Although I had a Suzuki GSXR that at 30K miles showed a lot of wear on the cams despite a life with synthetic oil.

Default when was your gixxer made in china?

Its just as racist to assume that any asian part is going to be bad since china is capable of making cheap stuff as it is racist to assume that anything made in china is crap..

as customfab said.. they actually are capable of making really really good products. The problem is people use China for cheap labor and in return get cheap products.

Where its made has less to do with the quality then people put on it. It simply goes back to you get what you pay for.
