OK-- so I've had this bike into the shop twice now to get her up and running strong. Had an issue with the clutch, and some other little kinks. Put some JC Whitney baffles on the pipes both to help with the noise level and because how the pipes were sitting... I would've blistered the shit out of my legs. I'll get some photos of the new baffles here in a bit.
Finally got to ride it for the first time yesterday, and was feeling great. However, I don't think it's 100% dialed in yet, and I've got some little issues that some of the motor guys could help me with...
I'm getting a lot of rattling/clicking from the engine case, sounds like it's a loose cam chain. It's pretty loud. In fact, while it was in the shop... the mechanic said the cam chain was very loose and that he adjusted it for me, but the sound is still here.
The other issue is that I'm getting a lot of steam/smoke from the breather tube that comes out of the top of the crank case. It looks more like steam cause it evaporated pretty quickly, but Jordan said he's getting a lot of oil & fuel smell when he rides behind me.
Should I be concerned and address these issues? Or do I just have a smoky & rattly bike?
