[QUOTE="ttreewalkerr, post: 1377508, member: 91059"] Runs great, I drove it. Idles fine. From both sides chain looks fine, cam gears look fine. With the manual adjuster I snuggled it up, started bike, and changed tension to see it had no effect on the sound. I did say, it purrs when cold, zero sound, in 1 min. Or so the sound starts. It's not a tick, more like a gargle like that video I posted. I went to upstroke on rh side 2 pistons and put a rod down on piston to see if I heard a movement down in bearing gap,, seemed no play,, but doubtful I'd feel it like that. Water pump ? When I bring rpm up as little as I can, let's say, 3000 sound goes away, higher rpm on steady no sound. Only idle when warm, and I can upset it by small burps of throttle. If I let it idle after upsetting it it calms to a garole clunky sound come and go. When driving it under load no sound, just at a light at idle you can hear it. My compression tester doesn't have small threads for this bike,, I'll see today if anywhere local has a 10mm threaded piece to test. Getting close to put it back together and take it to the shop. The old guy who owned it said it made that sound last year and he drove it like that,, he thought the cct was stuck in adjustment and needed some time to click to next spot. [/QUOTE]
