With the lower end still assembled, and the primary still attached, I put the bike in neutral and rotated the crank by hand. Looking for any points where the rods were not easily moved for/aft. Checked this at numerous points of rotation. Never did I feel any tightness. Crank measured runout was .006.

That will be the next step. Without removing the inner cam bearings they APPEAR intact. Gerotors were very bad.

Not saying this was the cause, but I was just a tad hard on the bike the way I was riding in the hill country, and then again when in the hills of northern Arkansas on the way home with Mikey and Bob.
