[QUOTE="Geezer, post: 677211, member: 436"] A - 2005 B - 50K miles C - I ignored the noise at first, after about 5K miles it got louder and I realized what it was and manually adjusted the CCT. I replaced the CCT at about 67,000 miles during winter maintenance D - Replacement of CCT solved the problem. I bought the new CCT before the redesigned part was available so I will replace it again at 100K even if it stays quiet. E - No - I don't let the dealer near my bikes F - No problems other than the noise G - N/A - replaced it myself H - No - I don't have YES and I didn't ask Yamaha for help I - Not yet J - Chain noise began shortly after performing a valve lash adjustment which required shim replacement with both cams out K - I will have 100K after one more season, by then there should be some history on both the APE and the new Yamaha unit. If I had to change it today I'd try the new Yamaha one. [/QUOTE]
