Who else has experience with cbr600rr's ?
Mine has a noise at idle (and a wicked noise at redline!)....sounds much like cam chain/tensioner noise which apparently hondas are known for, although i though it wasn't a problem in recent years....
The noise hasn't gotten louder in the year that i've owned the bike, so i spose it's not a cause for concern until it gets worse, and I might get John at Botany honda to have a quick listen....but i suspect he will say that he needs to take it apart to really give a diagnosis so i am just wondering if anyone is going to pop up and say "ha! yes mine had that exact noise and it lasted for a bazillion years no problems!"
Actually having said that the noise hasn't gotten louder, it's one of those things where you get used to a small increase in noise, and then when someone hears it after not riding it everyday they might go "fark that noise has gotten worse!"
