Hey everyone, got some great advice here last time so I'm hoping for some more this time!
I did a rebuild on my 1978 xs650 bobber, stripped the motor right apart, put it back together and I have a ticking coming from my top end.
I'm running pod filters, boyer ignition, simplified wiring.
It runs like a top right now except in neutral and at idle I can faintly hear a metal on metal ticking noise in the top end somewhere. It's more noticeable when the bike is in gear and when I start to let the clutch out it get very noticeable.
I'm stuck on what it could be.
I set the valves and timing chain tensionser to the proper specs as my book says so other than that I don't know. I'm going to double check my valves and tensioner tomorrow but if anyone has some other suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.
