I saw he posted a vid on facebook, I didn't even watch it, just posted "what is that ticking sound?"
Think the little guy spent the next 3 hours watching that 2 minute video over and over trying to figure it out
:angel:
there is a supercharger like whine i could hear though
Isn't that the truth. My CRF450 had a hot cam and all sorts of work and it made a ton of noise. One day we're out on an easy trail ride and it is running smoother and quiter than ever. Sucked a valve at half throttle cruising down the powerlines headed home lol
lmao, funny you say that. my dad had a 05 450x he let me ride this past dunes season. i put new valves in the head, cut the seats, new timing chain, all the goodies you need when the valves start sucking in to the head. Bike made it two trips and the "480 kit" that was in it cracked the cylinder and made some nasty racket but boy did she run good, kept right up with my brother who is lighter than me on his 2013 kawi 450. So i threw a brand new factory honda cylinder on it (stayed 450 this time as he just wanted to sell it), new piston, rings, wrist pin, another timing chain as the other one stretched already
, gaskets and so on. I rode it around three times to break it in and we sold it.
Only brians build thread could have 45 pages of bs and the rest in tech and ot stuff:rofl:
Only in a brian thread is normal BS on topic while tech is concidered off topic
