Does the 110" use the silent chain for the cam timing.... or is it gear?

I thought I had read somewhere they had switched back to a gear drive for the timing cam.

Anyone know?

never will.  Not with the wobbly cranks.  Acceptable runout is now over 12 thousandths (subject to increase)  gear drive requires almost zero.

Nothing about the 110" can be called "silent"

Except maybe the starter when you are not using it

MJB 765, I agree totally. It cost me a small fortune to quiet mine down.
