Going to pick up bike from Hamilton tomorrow.On trademe seller said no upcoming work reqd.After speaking to him on phone said I would check out bike and take for test ride before parting with cash.He mentioned it had a slight rattle when cold which went away as it warmed up,possibly the camchain.Also said people said it could go on indefinitely before needing sorting.Looked at manual(ta T.W.R.) and it has a automatic camchain tensioner which means either the camchain is worn to it's limit or the tensioner is sticking.Spoke to bike mechanic ,he said expensive to replace.Starting to worry,anybody got an XJ600 who could give me advice what to do? I like the bike but haven't got extra cashfor costly repairs.
