Hi.
I bought my A2 registered Fazer 600 a couple of months ago, and I've started to notice an increase in cam chain rattle. When I bought the bike it had some rattle when cold, but that stopped after running at tickover for a couple of minutes. Lately, at around 45 000 kilometers, the noise has been getting worse, and it's now started making a little bit of noise when warm, but I have to concentrate to hear it. Being suspicious I pulled the cam chain tensioner apart today and found that it was between 2/3rds and 3/4ths of the way out. The notches beyond the one that was engaged looked pretty dirty. Should I be getting a new cam chain soon, or is it fine for some 1000 km's more, if I stall the problem with a new tensioner? If so, do I just buy a new OEM one, or opt for a manual tensioner from a third party?
Thanks in advance,
Vebjorn
