Fettling bikes, one of life's little joys.... :whistle:qcnr wrote:Well I nearly got as far as dissasembling the bike to check the valve clearances.
Going to take off the crankcase inspection plugs after having removed everything else
and of course the largest one is stuck on with superglue or something...
Unfortunately the allen key slipped and has buggered the hole :S so before going any further need to get a new one.
Brilliant... :S

Re: Not good vibrations
how many miles has your bike done? my old alp was at 60,000mls and never had or needed valves adjusting..the carb balance helps...
if it just started id look at front tyre wear or knackered wheel bearings..all these and anything connected to front of bike as most bar wibes come from front...engine mounts and sprocket wear can be felt through foot pegs...
you want to ride a ccm644 or ktm640 to know what bad vibes really are :laugh:
