I'm still not convinced on this "myth" but have been looking into it some more just out of Kuriosity.
I have two set of cams on hand. One set from a US K100RS manufactured in 7/84 and another set from a 10/85 K100RT. There is a difference in them in the numbers stamped into them. The early ones are marked 125 and 126 while the later ones are 1450125 and 1450126 so apparently they were produced from different molds.
In poking are Fleabay for different countries I was able to make out the numbers on some of the cams up for sale.
On Germany and UK sites I found some 83 and 85 (model year I assume) which have the short numbers and on the Canada site I found some 87s that have the longer number.
