i spoke to a handy mechanic about this, who warned me that it might be the front guide that is worn, and if it is then i need to strip the engine right down.
he said to take to rocker cover off and measure the length across 10 links, and compare them to what it is meant to be, does anyone know what this is?

cheers people,
going to take some bits off tomorrow to see how loose it is, and if possible tighten the cam chain tensioner (Im going down to Portsmouth for two week on sunday, and want to take the bike).
wheres a good place to get the new chain from (wemto have one, but its an endless chain.

Hi does it rattle just when cold or does it continue once fully warmed up? I.e. After 10+ minute ride.
all the time (cold and warm)

Hi all! i know this has been done to death, but wanted to clear some things up. My cam chain is rattling (badly i think, seems more then a ticking), and im getting worried about riding it. (especially after i read this thread about the engine giving up). Whats likely to be the cause and how do i fix it? i reset the cam chain tensioner about 6 months ago (though noticed that there were two ball bearings in to make it push more) the bike is on 60k miles (1998) any ideas?

Probabkly not you, as I've seen it a few times in that road now - never with his lights on, silly bugger!
my extra lights are never on i had them on when i first fitted them and burnt out the reg, so now need to find some LED replacements

cheers for the help, realised that ive got my dads old Starcom1 knocking about (he took it off to replace with the bluetooth one) so now im just the £15 connector to a midland radio away

problem with bluetooth is it can only be paired with one person, and then you need to keep it paired.
stevierst, what radio is it? has it got the 2 pin connector?

found 2 solution, but both very expensive (partly due to shipping from USA)
Rugged radios make a headset that takes a 3.5mm input along with one from a radio (£250 for just the headset)
J & M make one designed for a bike with an MP3 input (~£300 for just the radio, not inc antenna etc...)

I'm in the proses of getting a CB radio on the bike, though I'm after a system where I can have music playing while the radio is not receiving, and mutes the music for the radio.
has anyone got any solutions to this?

dont wear glasses personally, but HJC helmets have a groove for your glasses to sit in and not push into your head
