Has anyone worked out why the 851 & 888's don't eat their rockers anywhere near as nad as on the later engines? They should suffer from the same oil starvation at start up and (one would assume) be just as sensitive to poorly adjusted valves? Surely if it was just down to bad chroming then Ducati would have got it sorted quickly.
