Camshaft, camshaft cap, wear and oil viscosity
#8
Tommy did you see the spreadsheet for the other members clearances?
yours is not much different in comparison but it can increase if the bike is used at higher rev's;

Took the liberty to add your measurements to it so we can all compare notes and learn.
And as i stated earlier the most wear occurs in the first kilometers:

Why did you remove the cam-cover, your values seem in spec to me ( see very top of the spreadsheet ) and i think this top part of the camshaft bearing is machined ( finished ) bolted to and mated with the cylinder head for a precise fit and close tolerance, most bikes only need to be adjusted ( shimmed ) after 40 to 50.000 km?

Sorry for the misunderstanding about this cover.
