Hey fellas. I have recently re-built my motor and put it back in my bike. Here is a video of the bike running. Please watch it and let me know if you think the motor sounds abnormal at all especially towards the end of the video...also after riding the bike a few times now she makes a "whirling" type noise in 5th gear as I am accelerating, this only happens in 5th and not on decel but only when twisting the throttle. I wish I could explain the sound better but it is difficult to put into words. The bike still rides perfect in 5th and does not affect the performance at all but I just hear this weird spinning/whirling sound. Anyways, let me know your thoughts.

Sounds like you might need to adjust the cam chain and valves.
What part of Virginia are you from? I grew up in Madison county.

valves and cam chain have already been adjusted. I grew up in Lynchburg but I live in Texas now...just haven't gotten around to changing the plate =D

Check to see if the camchain tensioner is missing the damper (copper washer in my pic). It will make noise if the damper has been lost over the years.
