Hi Guys,
I had a rattle which is like tappet clatter, I adjusted the valves and all seemed good. The adjustment didn't fix the rattle, when the engine is cold or it has been standing for a hour or so, it has this rattle like tappet lash. After starting the engine and once the oil reaches the top end, the rattle is gone completely. Could this be something to do with the rocker shafts? I am sorta lost with this one and hope someone else has an answer, the bike has only 12,000 miles on it.
Another thing I would like to ask, is there a oil pressure switch? My dash has a red light that says oil but comes on when the brakes are applied. I had a look around and can't find an Oil Pressure Switch or wiring.
Thanks guys
Noel
