Hi all,
Some of you may have seen an earlier post of mine about some top end noise I've been noticing on my '75. Here's a video:
I replaced my tappets (stock ones were pitting pretty bad), checked cam chain tension, and set my valves (.002" on the intake and .004" on the exhaust). Unfortunately, I'm still hearing the noise. Should I tear into the engine? I think it'd be fun and interesting, but I'm not sure if it's necessary or not.
If you 650 masters think I should, what are some things I should check, regarding the top end noise as well as just general maintenance and things to look out for?
Let me know!
Thanks,
Smiles
