Ok – I have recently bought myself a 1987 CBR600. All was going sweet until I booked the bike in for a new rear tyre.
The person/mechanic pointed out to me a “noise” – Oh- that’s the CAM chain they said. They then proceeded to listen to the rattle and rev the bike.
Facts:
1 – The rattle is only there when the engine is hot.
2 – The rattle disappears around the 3 ½ k to 4 k rev mark.
3 – The rattle reappears when de-accelerating again around the 3 ½ k to 4 k rev mark.
Could this be something serious or just a mechanical rattle due to the age of the bike?
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
