hey all, just finishing up the new build on my bike. Got some oil in there and just gave it a few kicks to see how smooth it is etc. Ignition is not wired up yet so obviously, I'm my trying to start it by doing this.
When I kick it, I get a sound that sounds very much like a valve hitting a piston. Now this would only happen if my cam was off, correct?
Well I checked double checked, and triple checked to make sure it was aligned properly upon installation of the cam. Top dead centre, and cam marks pointing vertical (12 o clock)
Could this possibly be something else or is it deffinitly a valve hitting a piston?
