New to the board with my 2024 CVO RG in Legendary Orange.  I have to say this is the beswt bike I have ever owned.

you had the opportunity while it was apart to beef up some weak points.  Seems they already have it back together.
You need to find out what exactly they did and what was replaced.  If they repaired the current engine, they needed to flush everything out.  The old lifter that failed certainly sent metal shavings into the engine and likely what caused the oil pump to fail.
What are the weak points you ask?
- valve springs are too stiff, partial cause of lifter failures.  Replace springs, or better yet have the heads done while off the bike and shave a little to increase compression
- OEM cam (SE255) has aggressive ramps, couple with springs that are too stiff and lackluster OEM lifter.  Lots of cam choices out there and pair with any headwork.
- Stock lifter, even the SE lifters, are not great.  Consider S&S among other great aftermarket choices.  Stock cam bearing is garbage and should be changed even if not changing cams
- While apart, check crank runout.  Factory spec is crazy (something like 0.012") and too me something like 0.005" is probably where you should start to be concerned.
- Full exhaust (with header) and tuner needed to bring engine temps down and get things runner smoother.  Get a proper dyno tune and not just a downloaded map.

Taking a few friends up Hwy 1 central coast route for a few days.
Don’t know if it’s open all the way to Big Sur but we’ll see.
We can always go across the coast mountains to Ft. Hunter Leggett.

Weather looks pretty nice this week!

Took that route from north to south then back north back in 2016 from Monterey. Great time and beautiful scenery (along with crazy drivers). Enjoy the trip.

After rereading your post I would be about certain that is why the previous owner traded it in.  He knew something was going bad.  Dealer just looked at bike and gave a trade in number.  It would be nice just to walk away from that bike if possible.  Good luck.  Let us know how it works out.

Did a nice 155 mile ride yesterday.  65 of it was with 4 local clubs on a Relay for Life charity ride, then to a blessing of the bikes.  Then to a party at another clubs clubhouse.  Great day.

Where did you get the reflectors from?

I got them on Amazon.

The only problem with getting a new Engione is, you are going to have the same lifters and valve springs, and dont forget the inner cam bearings, so to get the engine reliable, you need to change them out before it goes bang.
